The Movie

The theatre release was in 1989 and follows the career of “rockability” pioneer singer, piano, music recording star, Jerry Lee Lewis.  Actor Dennis Quaid became proficient in playing the piano in the style that Lewis did.  Winona Ryder plays his young wife Myra in the film.  Until his tour in England, Lewis was heading to become a bigger singer than Elvis Presley.  However, in England on tour, it came out he was married to a 13 year old.  As a result, his career took a huge nose dive. Lewis’s alcoholism did not help.  The music is lively and Quaid does a great job of portraying Lewis.  The film was shot in multiple southern states and has one the best musical movie lines: “I’m not going to hell; I am going to play piano”.

Dennis Quaid

Known for his grin, Dennis Quaid is currently still acting as he has done for almost the last 50 years.  He plays in a band, directed TV, and is a one handicap golfer and known for his Christian faith. Quaid is a recovering drug and anorexic addict.  He filmed an interview with Anthony Fauci during the 2020 Corvid epidemic. When his twins were in the hospital, they were given the wrong amount of a medication.  Both his wife and Quaid sued and later become advocates for prescription drug labeling and testified before Congress on the issue.
