Music and movies have always been linked, but today Jason Harden joins the show once again to talk with Alex and Jonathan about three films which detail the life of three modern music legends, What’s Love Got to Do with It (1993), Ray (2004), and Love & Mercy (2014). We talk about when depicting a person’s trauma goes too far, the appeal of seeing the creation of music on screen, and the importance of treating the narrative of real people’s lives with a dose of Love and Mercy.
