Judy Davis ("Passage to India" actress) was phenominal as the legendary Judy Garland!

Now it's hard to watch her in anything new in the past decade and not see her as Judy Garland playing the new role... Her performance was amazing!

nod

In addition to Leon doing a great job as David Ruffin, he also did a great job as Little Richard.

Laurence Fishburne did a good job as Ike Turner, as Angela Bassett did a great job as Tina Turner.

Cissy Spacek did great as Loretta Lynn.
