Your favorite movie about singer....
« on: May 06, 2012, 05:51:26 PM »
Was watching Walk the Line this weekend and was thinking what are the top movies about singers?  My two are #1 and #2

1) "Walk the Line"  - Johnny Cash

2) "Ray" -  Ray Charles

3) "What's Love Got To Do With it?" - Tina Turner

4) "The Rose"  - Janis Joplin

5) "Lady Sings The Blues"  - Billie Holiday

6) "Chuck Berry Hail! Hail! Rock 'N' Roll" - Chuck Berry

7) "Coal Miner's Daughter"  - Loretta Lynn

8) "The Buddy Holly Story"  - Buddy Holly

((bbing related because Joaquin Phoenix had to train to be in Gladiator and Jamie Foxx works out with Dre occasionally))

Dear Lord,

Forgive me for I have sinned.
I have forsaken you and Brittany Spears for not including her movie on my list
I am humble beneath your hand
I shall repent and become a better servant....
