Classic drama in which three soulful sisters rise out of Harlem to become music's hottest singing group. Against the vibrant grooves of Curtis Mayfield, these divas explode onto the scene with off-the-hook harmonies and a sexy style that catapults them to superstardom. But not every fairytale has a happy ending and when success leads to excess, one sister's star will fade, while another's will sparkle.

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play. Sparkle is a timeless story of the bonds of family, the trials of success and the power of music. In her feature film debut, "American Idol" sensation Jordin Sparks stars as Sparkle, a young woman whose big dreams seem almost impossible. She's been warned against the pitfalls of the music industry by her protective mother (Whitney Houston), yet encouraged by the handsome and ambitious Stix (Derek Luke), Sparkle forms a trio with her sisters (Tika Sumpter and Carmen Ejogo). Together, they perform the soul-stirring songs that Sparkle pens. But as their fame grows, so do the risks of jealousy, self-doubt and insidious temptation. A sweeping drama is brought to life with a powerful cast including Mike Epps, Omari Hardwick and CeeLo Green. Actors: Whitney Houston, Mike Epps, Cee-Lo Directors: Salim Akil Language: English Subtitles: Arabic, Dutch, Hindi, Italian Dubbed: French, Spanish, Italian Subtitles For The Hearing Impaired: English Number of discs: 1
