Anonymouson April 14, 2020 8:28 pm I enjoyed the movie about the Clark Sisters. They are super-talented sisters with beautiful voices! It would be great to see “ALL” five sisters come together for a reunion performance of a Lifetime. KUDOS to Queen Latifah, Mary J. Blige & Missy Elliott for bringing the story of the Clark Sisters to television.
