Just saw this movie
I was kind of young when Frankie Lyman was popular. I loved his music, however, I really was not familiar with his life story, other than he died of an overdose of drugs. Even though the movie took a lot of liberties and left much of his true life story out, I really enjoyed it.
Big thanks to the many entries on the message board that clarified and shed light on aspects left out of the movie. You really helped to bring out the essence of Frankie Lyman.
I agree with those who said Frankie resembled Gary Coleman. May they both RIP.
