- MBasial 11y agoI'm going to answer about band movies, here are my favorites: The Commitments, Josie and the Pussycats, Begin Again. The Commitments for the scene where the venue tries to screw them on pay. Josie had me at "Take the Chevy to the levy." Begin Again for that second pass through the song. All three are great throughout, but I love those particular scenes.
