Seen this one a few times now, but the ending came as a heck of a shock the first time round. Granted, it's based on a true story, but one that happened long before my time, and while I vaguely recalled some sort of bad business when the cinematic foreshadowing started, I found myself watching in abject horror as a fairly jolly drama about the 1960s music business turned into an altogether darker beast. Con O'Neill's lead performance is a little too effortful for my taste, but this is still an entertaining watch, if an ultimately depressing one.
