i gotta go with leon, though, i think he was fabulous as david ruffin...like anna konda said, he showed the humanity and vulnerability of such a complex man.

I have to give it up to Terron! His Voice & Body language were So reminisent of Eddie! IMO, He was 'Eddie' in His Voice, Facial expressions, & mannerisims,(did I spell that correctly?)! All of the Actors were extremely well versed in their Roles! What a Tribute They each displayed! There were times briefly, that I almost thought They were Their Who They Portrayed!

I re-watched the Movie in slow motion, & paused @ certain scenes! I NEVER saw a puppy! All I did was get crossed-eyed, & fell for a joke! Brilliant one at that! My Compliments!

The actor who sang at Melvin's funeral was the best. Sounded like a REAL singer....I just didn't get his name.

I voted for Christian because he gave a hell of a performance, but whatever happened to him  ? It's like he fell off the face of the earth ... at least I've seen the other actors in different roles - no matter how small - but he hasn't done anything since the movie. For somone so talented I just hope he gets a break in something decent..... The last thing I saw Christian in was "U.S. Marshals" with Tommy Lee Jones and Wesley Snipes. Someone told me he was in a PBS movie with Phylicia Rashad and Debbie Allen a while back, but I saw that movie and Christian was NOT in it. From what I've heard, he does a lot of stage work these days, so it's not like he's not doing anything. We just don't see him on TV or in the movies...  |

I saw him in US Marshalls, To Sir with Love II and a gangster movie with Laurence Fishburne (forgot the name), but those movies were made a while ago. I'm glad to hear he's doing stage work - which, in my opinion, is the best way to perfect your craft if you're an actor. |
