Dennis Quaid gives an energetic performance in this biography of the legendary rocker, Jerry Lee Lewis. This film is an entertaining account of how he initially rose to fame and the major turbulence along the way involving his 13-year-old wife, played by Winona Ryder. The great rock music in this film is a highlight.
