gary busey do a splendid job play the rock n roll legend buddy holly ( 1936 59 ) . he do have a spitting image to the man . be a garage band in the 50 be sure different from today . have a group of three be usually simple back in those day . i bet that buddy holly ( busey ) be a much good musician than most of what i heard . since he live in lubbock and texas and it be only a quiet country town back then . his parent be christian and though his mother be a strong supporter of her son work . that one of the reason he do not act like elvis . he stick to his kinder way . that really make him good . when he go to tennessee and he saw how bad the producer be . they hat rock n roll and that turn holly off big time . get use to the different atmosphere be a challenge to holly and his friend . he get to tour with sam cooke and go to the famous apollo and which the all afro american audience quickly accept them and i like that . and sam cooke make sure holly and his band get some service . that what i call tolerance . it sad that he and ritchie valens and and j. p. the big bopper richardson have their music career cut short by a plane crash in 1959 and at least their memory will live on in our heart . i do not what inaccuracy be in the movie and all i care be that buddy holly overcome the obstacle of music and politics in that time and and the music be nearly perfect . for gary busey and he be perfect in the role and and make the music as well . god bless you gary busey . 5 star .
