Biographical Movies, Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens

Over the weekend 2 of my favourite biographical movies were on the tele:

• The Buddy Holly Story
• La Bamba 

When they are on they also always seem to be back to back so I can get a few hours of entertainment from them, even though as Don McLean referred to it in American Pie, the day music died, is recounted in these as Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and The Big Bopper, died in a plane crash, Feb 3, 1959.  The movies aren't too campy, and do justice to the lives of Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens. Always worth a watch....
