I almost missed the movie because of this poster. If I hadn't seen this movie, I would have missed such a great guy, I don't mean his experience (he slept with 411 women, married 3 times, had 22 children, starred in Seventh Century In the 1900s, he made his own TV shows, and made friends including Elvis, the Beatles, etc. He would never tire of trying all kinds of drugs known to mankind, and then quit one by one...), but His music, his music is fantastic, especially the early style. And the way the film is presented is as unexpectedly delightful as his lyrics. highly recommended.

Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story quotes
-
Eddie Vedder: If Elvis and Buddy Holly are the Cain and Abel of rock and roll, Bruce Springsteen is Zachariah, Iggy Pop is Methuselah, and, of course, Neil Young is the wise prophet Ezekiel, then what does that make Dewey Cox?
-
[Nate's ghost appears when Dewey's in a rehab bathtub]
Dewey Cox: [smiling] Nate!
[younger Nate suddenly transforms into an older Nate]
Dewey Cox: [scared] Ahh! Nate?
Older Nate: This is what I'd look like had I grown up into an adult... and perhaps h-hadn't been murdered or whatever. I just came to tell you, you need to get your shit together!
Dewey Cox: [disappointed] I know. I've fallen again.
Older Nate: Will you listen to yourself? You keep whining like a little bitch! If I was alive right now, I'd be the fuckin' president! Of the United States! I'd be on the moon walkin' around lookin' for aliens to kill!
Dewey Cox: What?
Older Nate: You know why Dad liked me better than you? Cause I *was* better than you. When I played the piano, I was fuckin' awesome!
Dewey Cox: Oh, you think it's been easy for me? Since you're gone I got no sense of smell.
Older Nate: [mocking Dewey with a squealing voice] Oh you got no sense of smell? Can't smell anything? Ya can't smell anything?
Older Nate: [back to his normal voice] I got no sense of having legs, Dewey! I have no life! I'm dead! Because somebody, I'm not gonna point out names right now, decided to murder me with a machete!
Dewey Cox: Nate...
Older Nate: I can't even smell, touch, feel, I can't even masturbate! You ever tried to jerk off with a ghost hand? Nothing!
