The Gift of Amazing Grace (1986)
Member Rating:
The Cosby Show's Tempestt Bledsoe is center of attention in this ABC Afterschool Special. Born into a family of gospel singers, teenager Grace (Bledsoe) is the only member of the clan who can't sing a note. Moving in with her cousin Subaya (Kasi Lemmons), Grace pours out her heart -- and her frustration -- by writing a song about her plight. It turns out that she has musical talent after all, though not in a manner that her family (headed by no less than Della Reese) could ever have anticipated. ~ Rovi
