Song Sung Blue soars
The latest musical biopic is not a gleaming hagiography seeking to lionize the glamorous lives of rock stars or fawning fan service mythologizing their lavish escapades. Instead, Song Sung Blue, from filmmaker Craig Brewer, revolves around a real-life Neil Diamond tribute act, comprised of Mike, played by Hugh Jackman, and Claire Sardina, played by Kate Hudson, better known by their theatrical stage names: Thunder and Lightning.
