 | I love this movie! Jerry Lee Lewis was kind of a sicky marrying his 13 year old cousin. Jerry Lee Lewis is still alive and Elvis is not. If Myra answers the question,She's J.W. Brown's Daughter,which is true,too. not Jerry Lee Lewis's wife. It would've changed history. I would love to have this on DVD,full screen of course. Dennis quaid is a great Jerry Lee Lewis. His cousins are Mickey Gillie[A country star,that songs I don't know and never heard of.] and a religous freak,not Jerry Falwell. But another guy. having a small audience in front of him saying music is evil when it isn't. Why don't they join a cult? |

 | Dennis Quaid plays Jerry Lee Lewis in this movie. Jerry Lee does his own music. The movie is a three star and the music is a five star. This movie is the true story of the life of Jerry Lee Lewis and a wonderful showcase for the artist's own music performed by himself. |

 | Well if one likes Jerry Lee's music this one is OK. After all it is not Dennis who actually plays and sings. It is the killer himself who takes care of that. Dennis is well over the top in this flick but nevertheless it still is an item I love to see over and over - and it looks great on my 95 inch screen also.
Probably it is the music that makes it worthwhile but the impact of the big screen in my home cinema helps a great deal too. And young Wynona Ryder does look sweet and innocent and as some people would say - she is easy on the eye. Well I always liked her too, so.... |
