Review of The Gene Krupa Story (1959) by Liz J — 19 Oct 2008
This movie was a lot better than I had anticipated. I wasn't really sure what I was expecting but this movie was really good. Sal Mineo's portrayal of the drummer Gene Krupa was amazing and spot on.
The way he played the drums definitely reminded me of how Gene really played. Sal Mineo is a wonderful actor and I think he was a little overshadowed by James Dean's performance in Rebel Without A Cause.
Both are amazing actors and their deaths were tragic and left this earth far too early. Overall, this was an amazing movie and I recommend this movie to anyone who loves classic movies!
