re: Best Biopic movies for bands

I still find Coal Miner's Daughter to be one of the best biopics ever done. The quality of the acting performances as well as Sissy Spacek and Beverly D'Angelo singing in character and doing a great job of it makes it stand out. Tommy Lee Jones doing his thing before we knew it was his thing. Great movie I have seen many, many times. Didn't even like or appreciate Loretta Lynn before watching it. Makes a lot of music biopics look like afterschool specials IMO.

EASILY my favorite. It’s so damn good.
I had no idea they made a biopic about Ian Curtis.

Control is a good watch.. Another movie about someone I'd never heard of is You're Going to Miss Me When I'm Gone. It's a documentary.:

Tom Petty Running Down a Dream
I Am Trying to Break Your Heart by Wilco is a pretty decent story about the record biz, and they are a legit innovative band.
The Last Waltz
The Rush documentary is pretty good. Beyond the Lighted Stage
The documentary where Journey picks up their new lead singer is pretty fun. Great story.

The Glenn Miller Story
Hard to beat a movie with Stewart and June Allyson.
The Benny Goodman Story (1956) is pretty good too. Steve Allen and Donnie Reed star in it. Both have lots of scenes with performances by some outstanding Jazz performers. Lionel Hampton & Gene Krupa are in both.
I've bought my dad multiple LPs of both Miller & Goodman... When we were kids, my dad played his trombone with them.

Muscle Shoals. So many great songs were recorded at that studio & you learm how The Swampers came together. Hired Guns, documentary on studio musicians. Crossroads, 80's movie with Ralph Machio.
