Product Description
The true story of The Temptations, the Soul vocal group of the 1960s, as seen from the viewpoint of the last surviving member, Otis Williams. Beginning from their humble origins in the late 50s and continuing through the 90s and the deaths of the other 4 members.
Musically oriented filmmaker Allan Arkush directs this fine biopic which tracks the legendary career of The Temptations. One of R&B's most influential, revered bands, the five men enjoyed overnight success and helped define the Motown period. Like many other success stories, though, this one has a dark side -- with self-destructive impulses and personal problems threatening to destroy the band's reign. In addition to capturing the drama of the group's rise and fall, THE TEMPTATIONS features eight of the classic songs which made them legendary, including "My Girl," "Papa Was A Rollin' Stone," and "Get Ready."

| Great Movie a Must See for all OLD Schooler's Each and everytime this movie is on TV...I cut off the phone. The sound track is to 'Sweet'. It takes me into another time and place when life and growing up was oh so simple... The dancing, the songs, the Motown era makes me misty, as i remember when... the stage shows @ the Regal Theatre, the Arie Crown in Chicago and knowing all the words to the songs my daughters and grand kids, know now Grand Ma can sing.

| The Temptations - The Greatest This was a very well done movie with a lot of information of just how the TEMPS got together and became the great vocal group they were,the music is just super, it makes you want to be back there with them,the opening music just knocks you out.
