If you are a Hank fan, you will love this movie. It depicts the most important events in his life up until after the fall off Ajax Mountain. I love Hank, and I love this movie. I would love to see a Part 2, because so much has happened with Hank since the movie was made. It does however, leave out some important events in his life during that time-but how can you sum up his life in just 2 hours?
Rating: - Great entertainment!
I had a (very) small role in Living Proof, and I'm so glad it's finally available on video. One of my favorite memories was auditioning for Richard Thomas, whose wife had recently delivered triplets!

Rating: - Thomas stinks....movie does no justice!
As a country music lover and one who loves to read and watch biographies of country stars I find this movie way off!

In the movie, Richard Thomas (remember JohnBoy Walton) plays Hank. Good actor....but Hank Jr. he is not. Too.....weenie! The story deletes a marrage, never mentions his son, and understates the fall off Ajax Mountain. Hanks story is to mass for a two hour movie. I'd like to see a re ... Read More
Rating: - Do you like Bocephus ?
If you do like him (Hank Williams Jr), You will really enjoy this movie and all the great music. It is just amazing to see all that he has been up against in his life and overcomes . The down fall of this movie is the casting of Richard Thomas as Hank .
