Love and music

Here is a double feature of movies about people who make music. The recommendation is first from 1996, "Grace of My Heart" followed by, also from 1996, "That Thing You Do." These are for everyone who like a soundtrack to their love stories.
"Grace of My Heart" stars Illeana Douglas as an aspiring singer/songwriter and her life long pursuit of personal and professional dreams.
"That Thing You Do" stars Tom Everett Scott as a band member in 1964 Pennsylvania who climbs from obscurity to stardom in a few short months.
Both movies have a lot of heart and quite a bit of insight in to the star making machinery of the music industry. Laugh, cry, and clap your hands.
