EuroAussie Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 and once. True, true ... its actully close to my life as my wife is Czech and we also have to deal with the language and 'cultural' differences that the two characters had to go through. Falling Slowly was our first dance song at our wedding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnnyReb Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 I have to say Walk The Line is my favorite. Pure Country with George Straight was my prior favorite but I wore it out to much as a kid Great balls of fire about Jerry lee Lewis.....yea Coal miners daughter Your Cheating Heart where George Morgan played Hank Williams comes to mind. But I remember being turned off by the singing voice being Hank Jr. Was radically different than dads voice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 For me, was Pure Country before Crazy Heart came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Dave Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 I haven't seen it yet but Crazy Heart (Jeff Bridges) is supposed to be good. Not quite what you're looking for but I liked Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad I only need to watch one now haha. Which one did you prefer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I much preferred The Wrestler. I thought Crazy Heart was only OK. I watched it shortly after The Wrestler and was rather bemused by how much the theme and premise is similar to the other movie, just different genre. To me it was a copy. Copy issues aside, I still thought The Wrestler was the stronger film out of the two taken at face value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabs Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Spinal Tap (lets call it a Rockumentary if you will) :) Crossroads (just for the guitar duel at the end) It Might Get Loud Rockstar And is stretching it a bit but Schook of Rock is pretty funny :) I also like the Biographies mentioned.. Also Ray (Charles) and Whats Love Got to Do with It (Tina Turner) were both pretty good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDIipofjBQg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParlourMan Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Crazy (Story of Hank Garland) was watchable for a low budget guitar-interest type film. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0443474/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funniest music movie ever to me ... not for everyone ... but if you are a GP or FBB fan ... ya gotta see this ..... loose with the facts. Watch for the last scene. The guy coming out of the police station is actually GP's manager, the protagonist of the movie. Also guys, don't forget the Last Waltz (if that qualifies).

zombywoof Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Anybody ever seen Bloodworth? Kris Kristofferson plays a musician who returns home 40 years after abandoning his family for life on the road. His J-200 is almost like a member of the cast. http://youtu.be/LD5bY3jovso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
