Aretha Franklin has filed a lawsuit to prevent the documentary Amazing Grace from screening at the Telluride Film Fest.

Amazing Grace, was shot in 1972 by Sydney Pollack to document her live double album of the same name at the New Temple Missionary Baptist Church in Los Angeles.

The film was never released before now due to improper syncing between visuals and sound.

In a complaint, Franklin says that the footage "was taken with the express understanding that it would not be used commercially without agreement and consent by Ms. Franklin."

The complaint adds that "Allowing the film to be shown violates Ms. Franklin's contractual rights, her intellectual property rights, her rights to use and control her name and likeness, and represents an invasion of her privacy."
