Good News Buster

Good News Buster highlights the early years of Roosevelt Johnson - a spiritual patriarch of Present-Day Truth who was born after the Great Depression. A descendant of sharecroppers and self-made businessmen with deep spiritual roots, Roosevelt is determined to find a way out of the oppressive South. When an opportunity to perform secular music at The Apollo Theater in Harlem surfaces, Roosevelt takes a chance, veering from his call to the Gospel and promising himself he'll return. Will the prospect of earthly gain drown out his inner voice?
