I have to agree with Dan and his comment made a bit earlier in the thread. Movies never do the person's life or career justice. The actor is never quite right. They always seem artificial and contrived. I'm still cringing from the awful John Denver movie that was on TV not too long ago. I still can't believe I watched the whole thing. There are plenty of other dreadful movie depictions of musicians in recent years.
I guess I like seeing GL in concert, listening to his music and learning what I can about him interviews he chooses to do. It would seem that because he seems to be such a private person, any movie of his life no matter how well done, would make him uncomfortable.
It's fun to talk about but I don't know that I would ever want to see his life on the big or little screen. But that's just my opinion; the rest of you guys have a great time pursuing your ideas.
