Oh What a Night!

Rating: 10/10 (28 June 2014)

My wife and I have really enjoyed the story. We knew some of the music and she knew parts of the story. After seeing the theater version we were excited to learn of the movie and more so knowing Eastwood was involved.
My wife has her attraction to the story for many obvious reasons but I was impressed with how it portrayed the hard work and commitment. One variation of an American Dream story with all of the good and bad surrounding it.
The other thing I appreciated was some reliance on art and innuendo to portray the idol portions.
We have seen it twice in a movie grille format and last night the audience applauded enthusiastically. The first time on release night everyone was a little more reserved but many clapped.
I have never reviewed a movie and only see 1 or 2 a year so let's just say I was impressed.
