This is kind of a must-see for all the small-time or garage band guys that number in the millions. Kind of shows the pitfalls of fame and honesty. Collins starts out in earnest as a Lennon/Dylan type and, over time, let's his career corrupt him into something akin to Wayne Newton with the total destruction of his personal life--the one that mattered. Pacino was good and the film had a great beginning but pretty much slid into a typical Pacino film. The story was only semi-predictable and kept you waiting for "what next" on the emotional side.
A-list cast with Benning and Plummer standing out from the crowd.
Instrument players need to reflect on themselves to make sure their names aren't Danny Collins.
