This is a beautifully told story about Doc Pomus who was stricken with polio and led a very interesting life meeting fascinating people along the way and wrote popular songs we known and love including Save the Last dance for me. I just loved this movie because it was poignant and touching. It showed the struggles of an underdog who had successes but also failures. It was humorous yet sad....and uplifting at the same time. The songs in this movie were fantastic and woven into the storyline seamlessly. I enjoyed every minute of the movie and felt for Doc Pomus. You left the movie satisfied and in awe of Jerome's fascinating life. He had such an impact on so many songs we cherish and love today. Will Hechter deserves so much credit for putting together this wonderful movie. I recommend this movie to everyone!
