4.0 out of 5 stars Buy It!, January 11, 2003
By A Customer
If you are a Hank fan, you will love this movie. It depicts the most important events in his life up until after the fall off Ajax Mountain. I love Hank, and I love this movie. I would love to see a Part 2, because so much has happened with Hank since the movie was made. It does however, leave out some important events in his life during that time-but how can you sum up his life in just 2 hours?

5.0 out of 5 stars breathtaking, November 29, 1998
By A Customer
For as long as I can remember I've enjoyed watching real life stories of people. Living Proof was no exception. I felt my heart drop down to my feet when he fell off the side of the mountain. The movie was very touching and Richard Thomas is outstanding!

2.0 out of 5 stars Thomas stinks....movie does no justice!, October 9, 1999
By A Customer
As a country music lover and one who loves to read and watch biographies of country stars I find this movie way off! (And this comes from a frantic fan club member Hank Jr. fan) Maybe I feel this way because I read the autobiography prior to seeing the movie. The book is way better. Take my advice and read it!! In the movie, Richard Thomas (remember JohnBoy Walton) plays Hank. Good actor....but Hank Jr. he is not. Too.....weenie! The story deletes a marrage, never mentions his son, and understates the fall off Ajax Mountain. Hanks story is to mass for a two hour movie. I'd like to see a re-make to his story. There were good points: Clu Galagher as JR Smith was great.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, but standard bio-pic stuff
Just how much of this film is true, and how much fiction is probably known only to the actual persons who lived out this story. It's entertaining as most such films are. Read more
