You’d be forgiven for thinking
that once you’ve seen one music biopic then you’ve seen them all
but Dewey Cox is about to change all that! Another comedy gem from the
stable of producer JUDD APATOW (Superbad, Knocked Up), Walk Hard: The
Dewey Cox Story arrives on DVD and High Definition Blu-ray from 12th
May 2008, courtesy of Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.
Charting the hilarious rise,
fall and rise again of fictional music hero Dewey Cox (JOHN C REILLY,
Magnolia, Talladega Nights), Walk Hard follows Dewey as he beds 411
women, has 22 kids, stars in his own TV show and becomes addicted to
and kicks every drug known to man.
With friends including Elvis,
The Beatles and even a chimp, no music star in history lead a life that
compared to Dewey’s. But the love of a good woman (JENNA FISCHER,
The Brothers Solomon, TV’s The Office: An American Workplace) calms
his wilder excesses and earns him the status of a true American hero.
Taking pot shots at earnest music
biopics like Ray and Walk The Line, Walk Hard features a Golden Globe-nominated
performance from JOHN C REILLY.
