    I am not a fan of music biography movies. They are probably my least favorite genre. Sure the music is different but the story is always the same. They all included the scene where the artist does it "his own way". Yawn. "La Bamba", however, is one that I like.

    I can't agree with the previous commenter, I'm a big fan of musical biographies and musicals. I really can't be dragged away from watching, and when it comes to discussions, I'm a better speaker. I can talk to strangers about musicals for hours on end without realizing how the time is passing, I get a buzz out of it, so the list from here is good for me, although I have seen some of the films.

    This is an excellent Music, who liked many and won excellent estimates from the movie actors. And such a detailed analysis of the locations of this film allows fans to visit them and feel and experience all the energy of the terrain and flashbacks from the film. Very happy for such a cool to become, thank you!

    I love this movie everytime I see it, it makes me feel like a kid again. I'm a cable installer and got lucky enough to do a job at Daniel Valdez's house and I seen the "flying guitar" posters and I was star struck and they were surprised i knew who they were and I was like,I grew up watching la Bamba and still watch it every chance I get. they were really awesome people.

    Thank you so much for this blog, The Southside school always looked so familiar to me, I attended there for one year very long ago.
