With sweetness and swagger, Lou Diamond Phillips embodies the 1950s California teenager who, forged by his fiercely supportive mother and rebellious brother, rises from his farm-working roots to chart-topping fame in the early days of rock, until one fateful night that haunts music history. Propelled by a hip-shaking soundtrack featuring Los Lobos and Carlos Santana, this film captures the electric vitality of an artist who bridged cultures to create his own American dream.Blu-ray, region A, wide screen (1.85:1), 5.1 surround sound; requires Blu-ray player.
