We have seen plenty of biographical films of music legends;
some of them good and some not so good. The best performances by an actor (male
or female) made you forget that the actor was playing a role – they played the
part so well that they became their
subject. This is especially true when the actor sings and/or plays an
instrument in their portrayal of a real life figure. Those of us that play
instruments notice and appreciate when we see that such an actor can really
play a guitar or piano; not just pretend to play. Not every actor is able to take
their performance to such an extent, but when it happens, it makes them more
believable in their role as a well-known musician.
