I recently fell in love with Gram Parsons music and was excited to find there were movies made about him. This one left me so dry and dissatisfied. They covered a really great story about a great person, but told very very little about him. If you had no idea who he was before you saw this film, you knew only a hair more about him afterward. They really should have constructed a better picture of who he was and given a lot more attention to the depth of his character rather than the mere outline of his funeral. Johnny Knoxville's performance was Luke warm and Christina Applegate failed to move me to believe she ever had a single feeling about the man. What I found particularly sad, was the interviews with the director and screen writer when they talked it all up as if it were the "greatest story ever told". Well, it could have been if they had any real love or appreciation for the man they were making it about. BOOOOOOOOOOO
