Danny Glover, Charles S. Dutton, and LisaGay Hamilton in Honeydripper (2007)

Review by vchimpanzee

Honeydripper

Outstanding job, great music

So is this guy who gets off the train and carries a guitar in fact the famous man himself? Hardly. And Sonny is advised by the fantastic and friendly blind dobro player that he is on the wrong side of town.

Let me put it this way: There's good rockin' tonight! Yes, I said rock. Five years before white people discovered rock and roll, these people were doing it and doing it quite well.

There are outstanding performances from just about everyone. Danny Glover has some scenes that I wouldn't be surprised to see as Oscar clips. Charles Dutton does his usual fine work and makes us laugh. Stacy Keach also does great work. Mary Steenburgen has a good scene as the employer of one of the black women.

Keb Mo' gives what may the best performance of all, and not just as an actor. He can play that dobro!

The musicians are very talented, particularly Gary Clark.

Even those young boys give good performances, however brief. You have to watch them again at the end, after their pretend musical instruments have improved.

It's an outstanding effort you just have to see.
