Beyoncé's concert film, 'Renaissance: A Film By Beyoncé', has become a commercial and critical success, earning over $20 million in its opening weekend and receiving a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
The film, which chronicles her record-breaking Renaissance World Tour, was described by Beyoncé as 'one of the hardest things I’ve ever done' due to the short turnaround time for production.
