I haven't seen Gary Busey's portrayal of Holly and I've read the film is rife with historical inaccuracies. What's your take on the film?
LOL, the biopic is utter cr*p. Every possible detail and story, WRONG. But it's worth a view for entertainment value, all the RNR biopics made in the 70's and 80's are,

The Real Buddy Holly Story
- Rare archive footage of Holly performing Peggy Sue on the Ed Sulivan Show.
- Also, a quick chat with Sullivan after the performance.
- Interviews with family, former band members, Petty's widow
- Commentary from McCartney, Keith Richards etc
I liked Keith's comments towards the end of the documentary in relation to Holly's impact on Rock musicians.
It also answered to some extent why Norman Petty's name is billed on many of Holly's records as a co-writer to many of his songs. I highly doubt Petty actually contributed to the writing on his lyrics, melodies etc.

Are you referring to the 1983 film?
