Ehowlew I saw this movie as a young adult and, unfortunately have not seen it since. I was not familiar with their story but knew and loved their music. Dead Man's Curve has haunted and inspired me for many years and I highly recommend the movie. I thought it was well acted by everyone and the storyline is compelling. There is truly no other movie like this one and it is true! One should definitely see this movie, if for no other reason than to see the ending - it is both incredible and inspiring. Hollywood has produced many movies that tell the story of strength growing out of misfortune or human error, redemption rising from the ashes of despair and tragedy. It is my view that this movie tells this story as good as any and better than most. The truth that haunts the storyline creates a compelling and engrossing experience.

railwayed I just saw this again on TV for the first time in MANY years. Wow!The performances of Richard Hatch and Bruce Davison are what make the film. Especially the portrayal of Jan Berry after the accident. Very moving story. I must recommend the book Dead Man's Curve and Back: The Jan & Dean Story which goes further in-depth to their story and tells the amazing story of how this TV movie gave them a whole new career.I wish current TV movies like the recent Charlie's Angels and Three's Company movies could have been this good by taking the subjects seriously.

mg1119 This is an excellent, emotionally compelling telling of the life of Jan Berry. The best thing is the performance of Richard Hatch as Jan, who should have at least been nominated for an Emmy for it, but was overlooked. He is brilliant as he captures Jan's handicap and struggle with aphasia. He also is uncanny at capturing Jan's personality and sense of humor, which is readily apparent to anyone who has seen Jan and Dean in concert. Bruce Davidson is also excellent in the less-showy role of Dean Torrence. Highly recommended for fans of mid '60s music, or anyone interested in dramatic biographical stories.
