23rd June 2008

Having recently started to enjoy the old rock and roll songs again I was looking forward to seeing the life story of one of the great rock and rollers. This film centred around the relationship with his cousin and didn't cover anything of substance about his career. There were very few of his hits played and I felt let down thinking that this was going to be a boigraphy. I also felt some scenes with his cousin were distasteful and need not of have been shown. Whilst his relationship with his cousin was inappropriate there was obviously some talent from this man which was hardly touched upon in the film. It appeared the intention was to ridicule him and add that he could also play/sing rock and roll
