Re: Music movies

Crazy Heart is a fantastic film.   It has most of my favorite actors in it (Bridges, Colin Farrell, Robert Duval, and Maggie Gylinhal) and "The Weary Kind" is a fantastic song in it's own right.

Someday we'll win this thing...

Re: Music movies

Thanks guys sorted  now  I  found  another  one  "I don't know "these three  that  I  have now  suit  my  style  pretty  well

Re: Music movies

I never knew Jeff Bridges was an accomplished musician ... that's awesome. Really liked his take on John Wayne's "True Grit" character, and he was a terrific villain in the first Iron Man movie. He had great chemistry with Robert Downey Jr.

Re: Music movies

For a bit more laconic take on Bridges, "The Fabulous Baker Boys" is a great film with great music.   "Making Whoopie" has yet to be done better.

Re: Music movies

It may be a almost B movie but I love the Eddie and the Cruisers movies due to the fact taht the sound tracks and John Caferdy and the beaver brown band was pretty darn good.

On the dark side is still a great song.

Re: Music movies

I enjoyed "The Commitments". 

My favorite part was when the band manager was explaining to the band how the group of pasty white Irish are blacks.  It made perfect sense. 

Also, when he was yelling at the backup singers for using their own accents, "It's not 'Roid Sally, roid'!!"

Re: Music movies

Nobodys mentioned Spinal Tap yet its so true to reality ive identified with things in this movie so many times over the years,but as yet we havent had a drummer explode on stage

Re: Music movies

The Commitments
Once
Almost Famous
Crazy Heart
Inside Llewin Davis
The Pianist
This Is Spinal Tap
Crossroads (Ralph Macchio, not Britney Spears)
School Of Rock

Great films about music/musicians from my DVD shelf - I think The Commitments is my favourite.

Re: Music movies

More for the Brits, maybe, but "Oil City Confidential" is a very good, fun documentary about the British band "Dr Feelgood"...

" Old Guy is Rocking"
Simon & Patrick Pro Flamed Maple (mmm, nice...)
Norman ST68 acoustic

Re: Music movies

Cross roads is great the Steve Vai bit at the end superb

Re: Music movies

20 feet from stardom, sound city, and Jimi Hendrix (the doc on netflix) are all great and so is the Tom Petty -running down a dream and the eagles4 hour one.

NO ONE HAS MENTIONED   WALK THE LINE with Reese Witherspoon and Joaquin Phoenix   Such a great movie!
