DieHardCubFan Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Almost Famous, Boogie Nights, & Dazed and Confused are all great - especially since I grew up in the '70s.... But I personally like "Detroit Rock City" - 4 guys trying to get tix to a 1978 KISS concert - I LIVED that movie! (My 1st rock concert, 1978, Tarrant County Convention Center, KISS !!) :guitar: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdsteele Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Check out Blow Cheapy. Great soundtrack. Here is the synopsis of this true story: George Jung is the son of a struggling small business owner. Seeing his family struggle to make ends meet and failing, George vows never to share a similar fate. Moving to California, he starts his own pot pushing operation in which he finds both success and imprisonment. In prison, he meets a cellmate who introduces him into a partnership to the lucrative new market in cocaine. Upon release, George Jung quickly becomes instrumental in establishing the exploding US market for cocaine in which he claimed that he handled about 85% of the supply in the 1970's. However, for all the fabulous wealth and power he gained, the true costs of his dangerously treacherous occupation catch up with him in ways from which he would never recover. Cool Website too: http://www.getsomeblow.com/index2.html All Star cast: (My fav was Paul Ruebens character) Johnny Depp .... George Jung Penélope Cruz .... Mirtha Jung Franka Potente ....
