Greatest Music Dramas.

Angela Bassett and Laurence Fishburne are amazing as Ike and Tina Turner. This story covers The rock queens life story, and showing trials of not just women, but the struggles of colored (anyone, not considered caucasian)people. It covers the Queen of Rock's trials and hardships to reach the top again.

Jamie Fox, was born to play SOul Singer Ray Charles. A stellar soundtrack and movie.
Jamie was born to play Ray, just as
Reese Witherspoon was born to play June Carter Cash, Lawrence Fishburn was born to play Ike Turner, and Cissy Spaceck was born to play Loretta Lynn.

A hilariously funny dramatization of the composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Lou Diamond Phillips shines in this account of spanish rocker Ritchie Valens.

I thought this movie was great. Reese and Joaquin give stellar performances as Johnny Cash, and June Carter. A movie filled with amazing acting and music.
Reese even sings like the country queen June Carter, she deserved the GG.

This is the story of one of my favorite country singers life, the story of country Queen Loretta Lynn, and the break through film of Cissy Spaceck. Funny story Loretta herself picked Sissy to play her even before speaking to her and before she agree'd. Siss was actually angry but once the saw the redneck woman in person, she couldn't refuse, and this career defining film was created. I don't think Sissy lived up to the theatrical greatness of this movie, until "North County" Sissy, along with Lawrence Fishburn, Jamie Fox, and Resse Witherspoon, (Ike Turner, Ray Charles, and June Carter Cash) was born to this roles, much the same as the others were born to do theirs.

Denis Quaid, worked it out in the dramatization of Jerry Lee Lewis' life. Denis had the same swagger and self validating mannerism's as Lewis.

Eminem is surprisingly a good actor. This story is loosely based on his life. Soundtrack is quite good.

A good movie. When I first saw that 50 cent was having a movie based on his life I was irked. I thought "he's not Ray, Tina, Johnny, or even Eminem" but I started watching the movie on super channel, and though it is entertaining, and I rather enjoyed it. I thought it accurately displayed that Ghetto life is really not as easy as most wannabe gangsta's think it is. Though 50 cent may not be a hardcore rap artist, he does however have more street credibility than most "Gangsta's"
