What are some good movies about the lifestyle of rock and roll music?

I recently watched 'Pirate Radio' and 'Almost Famous' both featuring Philip Seymour Hoffman and I thought these movies we're amazing because of the way they portrayed the rock and roll lifestyle and the friendship in both movies. Does anyone know any movies similar to these?|||There's a rock movie that should be seen, if you want a real glimpse into the rock music business. Movies and such, often show the fun side but rarely the business people %26amp; demands you must endure to make it.

The Rose starring Bette Midler


Its a very realistic portrayal , that many people dont realize how hard being a " product" actually is.


There's a lot of fun and great music in this also.. but its a harder life than it appears. Great movie. She won Best Actress Oscar and Frederic Forrest best supporting actor Oscar.





If you have Netflix, Browse Documentaries%26gt; Rockumentaries

You might like Taking Woodstock, too.
