In Detroit in the '60s, as long as you found a good karaoke club, you could be famous for it. However, your song may not get the green attention of the radio station. At this time, all the dreams about Detroit began to weave by these three dream girls.
Curtis Taylor, Jr. (Jamie Foxx) is a car salesman who dreams of a career in singing. What he needs is favorable conditions, quality singers and just the right merchandise to sell.
Dreamettes - Deena Jone (Beyonce Knowles), Lorrell Robinson (Anika Noni Rose) and lead vocals Effie White (Jennifer Hudson), they're young, beautiful, and with great vocals, exactly what Curtis is looking for!
They started out as backing vocalists for James "Thunder" Early (Eddie Murphy), Detroit's "New Voice". However, Curtis saw the right moment to make Deena the main voice (because of her outstanding looks), fly away Effie (because she was too fat and arrogant), recruit another person to replace her, and form The Dream! The outside media also began to focus on them, snubbing Effie.
Fame has a price. The Dream and Curtis are under pressure to "become famous" and have to make a dilemma...
"Dreamgirls" is like another "Moulin Rouge" and "Chicago," but with more It has the style of Shaw Brothers film Huangmei tune (speech is used to sing!). The film does not forget to mention the inseparable relationship between drugs and artists at that time.
It is worth mentioning that Jennifer Hudson, who has participated in "American Idol" twice (and won the runner-up for the second time), her excellent acting skills, also won the favor of Oscar, won the best supporting actress. Eddie Murphy isn't bad either, nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, and it's the first time I've seen him act in a non-comedy way.
Love and betrayal, these two terms keep alternating, both in the play and in reality! Why can't love tolerate betrayal? Or why can't love overcome a betrayal heart? Is it between love and betrayal to find true love? ? ! !
