    In a new doc, David Foster reminds us he's more than a reality TV star: There are those 16 Grammys

    by Amy Kaufman, Los Angeles Times Sep 18, 2019 6 minutes

    TORONTO - "Amy?" David Foster confirms, settling into his seat.

    "Go."

    The drive from the songwriter's hotel to a dinner being held in his honor will take no more than 30 minutes, and he does not want to waste any of them. He likes to be in control. Some of the first words he utters in a new documentary about his life are a warning to its director: "You think that you're just going to put this film together and it's going to be exactly the way you want it. But it's not, because I'm going to be over your shoulder the whole ... way."

    "Could I have been more wrong? I had zero control," he says now, as the car idles in traffic in downtown Toronto, where "David Foster: Off the Record" premiered last week at the local film festival.

    The notion that Foster, 69, did not have final cut on the film is kind of unbelievable, given how positively glowing it is about his life.
