However, the film's focus on a single celebrity limits opportunities for complex, storytelling that reflects multiple aspects of identity. The lack of intentional diversity in casting and themes further restricts its scope.

As a performer who puts her heart and soul into every show, Cher is never more riveting than when she's playing Las Vegas. This 1992 show at The Mirage Hotel captures the diva at her very best as she struts her stuff on the sold-out "Heart of Stone" tour.
