‘Biggie And Tupac’ Was The Film Violetta Wanted

MuchMusic caught up with ‘Biggie And Tupac’ director Nick Broomfield and asked him what Notorious B.I.G.’s mother Violetta Wallace thought of his work. “She was the first person that I showed the film to,” said Broomfield. “I think she was very moved by the film and it really mattered to me what she thought of it. And she said, ‘This is the film I wanted, this is the film I think that will find those responsible for killing my son.'” Tupac Shakur died September 1996 and only six months later, Violetta’s son died as well.
