The Identical Page #3

Synopsis: In 1936, William and Helen Hemsley (Brian Geraghty, Amanda Crew) welcome identical twin boys into the world. But their joy is quickly tempered by a sobering realization; how could they give these children any kind of a life beyond the desperate poverty that haunted many families in the midst of the Great Depression? When evangelist Reece Wade (Ray Liotta) reveals that he and his wife Louise (Ashley Judd) cannot have children, William feels the Lord's prompting to give them one of the infant boys. Both brothers are born with passion, drive and awesome musical talent, but take very separate, yet converging paths. Drexel Hemsley (Blake Rayne) rises like a comet and changes the music world forever. His adopted brother, Ryan Wade (also played by Blake Rayne) struggles to find the purpose for his life. All the way into manhood he wrestles with pleasing Reverend Wade, his loving but controlling father, who is convinced his son Ryan is called into the ministry. Ryan is encouraged by his loving

that's what.

Dance, dance, dance, everybody now

Dance, dance, dance

Everybody's doing it

It's boogie-woogie rock and roll

Yeah

Yeah, that's a good song, cuz.

Yeah, man.

We need more guys though.

Well, we need more everything.

Man, we get some guys in here.

I'll sing the songs, write the songs.

You play the drums.

It's all I want to do.

Hey, you call the tune, I'll play it.

Let's do it.

Yeah, let's do it, oh!

Forty years.

Forty years wandering the desert.

Looking for a sign.

Praying for an answer,

a direction.

But sometimes...

God's answer to His children...

is wait.

Hey, what's the rush?

You're sure your daddy's okay with this?

Oh, yeah, man, I take

his car all the time.

Hey! What do you think you're doing?

Oh no, he looks mad!

Get out! Get back here!

Get back here! Get back here!

You gotta get up, come on

You gotta get up, come on

Put on your dancin' feet

You gotta get up, come on

I've never seen anyone move like that.

He just don't care.

Now I grant you,

it was a tad odd on a first date

to visit a honky-tonk across the tracks.

But Ryan was unlike any

boy I had ever met.

Sweet and gentle, a gentleman

through and through.

When that music started,

it was like a fire erupted

in that heart of his.

You're so pretty in your face.

I was wondering if

you'd ever ask me out.

What took you so long, anyway?

I was afraid you'd say no.

Well, I didn't, did I?

No, you didn't.

Hey, girl, you can really do this.

Well, I should say

the same thing of you.

Where did a preacher's kid learn

to dance the way that you do?

Oh, well I don't know.

Something just happens

to me when I hear music.

You know, whatever it is,

it's a good thing, Ryan Wade.

Hey. You better keep them pipes warm.

This party's just getting started.

That was nice.

Maybe we can do this again sometime.

I would like that, Ryan Wade.

Ladies and gentlemen, may I

please have your attention.

For our next number,

we'd like to bring up

a very special guest.

Now it appears we have a

very talented young man

in our midst tonight.

And the rumor is dude

can really bring it on home.

Well, let's just see.

Please welcome the man with

all those dance moves,

Mr. Ryan Wade.

There are many accounts

of how, when, and where

rock n' roll was actually born.

Now I'm not saying they're

wrong or anything,

But I believe part of that birth

happened on this very night in

little old Lebanon, Tennessee.

Is this you?

We've got the tune from

Little Drummer Boy.

You lead, we'll follow.

Give me a song, Mr. Music Man

Want to hear your rockin' band

Play it loud,

don't you play it sweet

I got a feelin' in my feet

Boogie-woogie rock 'n roll
