Dreamgirls (USA) (Paramount/DreamWorks) (2006) ****Year: 2006iMDB
Director: Bill Condon Cast: Jamie Foxx, Beyonce Knowles, Eddie Murphy, Jennifer Hudson, Danny Glover
Glamorous and glittery, Dreamgirls does more than justice to the famous award winning Broadway original. The story is a lose semi-fictional adaptation of The Supremes real story, one of the most famous Motown groups from Detroit. But Dreamgirls is not about the story. It's all about the music.
American Idol not-quite-winner Jennifer Hudson is probably not willing to trade her Golden Globe win for playing Effie with an Idol win as she got the chance to outshine Beyonce in one of the best movie adaptations of a Broadway success.
