I was able to see Song Sung Blue at the theater last week, on my birthday, and I cannot say enough good things about it—it's probably one of the best, if not the best, movie I have seen this year (and pre-August aka pre-Baby K I saw quite a bit of movies!). Fun fact, also—I follow the director, Craig Brewer, on Twitter (aka X), ever since his Footloose remake came out, and in the early 2010s he would sometimes respond when I tweeted at him, so I was excited to see he directed this one. Two of my lucky readers will win a digital code for the movie, also! See below for details.  The film is now available on digital platforms to buy or rent, and will be on Blu-ray on February 17.
