THE BUDDY HOLLY STORY opens in New York. Directed by Steve Rash. Written by Robert Gittler. Modestly budgeted, workmanlike rock'n'roll bio-pic deftly transcends the genre's schematic and hagiographic tropes on the back of Gary Busey's pitch perfect, go for broke, barnstorming, Oscar-nominated performance. With Don Stroud, Charles Martin Smith, Conrad Janis and William Jordan.
