tamra,
Yeah I am glad this one popped back up to the top!!!Yeah I watch Danza only b/c were I am about that time is onthe basic/basic cable.....but it is surprisingly good

The working title of the flick is http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0760183/ - Sexual Healing'

bingolong,
I'm glad they finally got this one going. That's the key though, who's the director? And is this going to the big screen? The biopic has become the little money maker lately. I hope they don't wear it out and start making gunk. I tell you I saw this guy in "RENT"(don't ask me why I was seeing this, I thought it was about people trying to pay their rent...seriously! lol) He played a gay guy dating a transsexual and that sorta disturbed me with all the kissing and stuff. But he does look like an older Marvin. Marvin deserves an epic biopic, I hope they don't just focus on one area of his life. Like the last ten years. Even though those were his most exciting artistcally.

dougdigitalpro,
sorry doug...its about his last years...and the person directing it is a woman..(white),..sounds like another "Cry Freedom" type flick to me

jermainebailey,
yup, probably will be. Damn! I shoulda been the director! Is this even gonna be on the big screen or on cable? Jesse does look eerily like him though. And what is up with Motown???
I'll tell you this much, here in Detroit, they FINALLY (after 35 years) tore that damn ol Motown building down. The ol skyscraper that sat on Woodward. Man, talk about an eyesore! Place was like a permanant reminder that Motown was gone.

dougdigitalpro,

tell me thats not true: THEY TORE DOWN THE HITSVILLE house????

jermainebailey,
No. They tore down the old skyscraper on Woodward. The one near the Fox Theatre.
