Overview
Prince: Sign o' the Times is a 1987 concert film that captures the musician Prince and his band performing material from his Grammy-nominated album of the same name. Directed by Prince, the film was created during a period when the artist experienced significant success in Europe but faced declining album sales in the United States. To address this, Prince decided to record a live concert performance for theatrical distribution to help promote the new music to American audiences. The film features a musical ensemble that accompanied Prince on his 1987 tour, including drummer Sheila E., bassist Levi Seacer, Jr., guitarist Miko Weaver, keyboardist Boni Boyer, and dancer Cat Glover. Classified as a music documentary, the production showcases Prince at the peak of his musical abilities. The film was released in the United States on November 20, 1987, and has a runtime of one hour and twenty-four minutes. It remains a notable example of a concert film designed to bring a studio album to life for a wider audience.
