Even though the name Hank Williams does not ring any bells, I have no problem with learning something new in a biopic. However, this film is not able to do that, and the only thing I learnt from it was the fact that Hank died so young because during the few years of his life he drank about five hectoliters of pure denatured alcohol… and it didn’t seem odd to him at all.
