Great Balls of Fire!

(1989)Directed by Jim McBride108 min · PG-13Drama, History, Music
“The true story of a legend.”

In the 1950s, Jerry Lee Lewis (Dennis Quaid) leaves his family's place in the South with a piano and a high opinion of himself, and he talks his way into a recording career. Jim McBride follows his run of hit records alongside his marriage to Myra Gale Brown (Winona Ryder), his young cousin, and the public scorn that came with both. Jerry Lee's talent and his sense of sin are bound together, and neither will give way to the other.
