Synopsis
Get on Up
A chronicle of James Brown's rise from extreme poverty to become one of the most influential musicians in history.
The Runaways
Joan Jett and Cherie Currie, two rebellious teenagers from Southern California, become the frontwomen for The Runaways -- the now-legendary group that paved the way for future generations of female rockers. Under the Svengali-like influence of impresario Kim Fowley, the band becomes a huge success.
