Song Sung Blue (M)

Based on a remarkable true story starring Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson (nominated for a Golden Globe for her powerhouse performance).

Two down-on-their-luck musicians – Mike and Claire – cross paths in an unexpected duet and form a joyous Neil Diamond tribute band named “Lightning & Thunder”.

Heartfelt, funny, and filled with the spirit of Diamond’s timeless songs, Song Sung Blue strikes a powerful chord and proves that it’s never too late to find love or follow the music calling you home.

Cast: Hugh Jackman, Kate Hudson, Michael Imperioli, Jim Belushi, Fisher Stevens

Director: Craig Brewer

★★★★½ "Always feels grounded and honest and a little bit awkward in all the right ways." EYE FOR FILM

★★★★ "Glitter, fringe, cheesy grins, and all, it’s an ode to second chances, wrapped in the shimmering key of Diamond" REEL REVIEWS

★★★★ "one of my favorite movies of the year. It all has to do with Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson’s performances, along with a touching script by Craig Brewer and Greg Kohs. What makes this story so compelling is not only that it is true, but also that Mike Sardina and Claire Stengl are us. They are normal people who want to perform and bring happiness to the world."

★★★★ "heartwarming, uplifting, tear-jerking, and chock full of a beautiful noise" REEL REVIEWS
