Dreamgirls film review

Year: 2006 Ok, I just saw Dreamgirls…or what I like to call Behind The Music: Destiny’s Child (Just ki’in! LOL). Since the “remake” theme is the new norm for Hollywood, I can say I’ve never seen the play (Damn shame, ain’t it?), so it was a good thing and a bad thing: Good that I ….

Dreamgirls Movie Updates

I watched the Broadway play Dreamgirls when I was 11 years old. My family made it tradition to watch Broadway shows every year, at least 3 times a year, as a family unit.
