Loosely based on Frank Sinatra, Jonny Fontaine was a nice character in the first Godfather film that was one of the godson’s of Don Vito Corleone. The Godfather assisted Fontaine throughout his career, most notably with the use of severed head in the bed of a movie studio executive. It got him the part, and put the crooner back on top. If you vote for him, we will make you an offer you can’t refuse!

A childhood friend of Richie Cunningham, Rocky Rhoads was the leader of Johnny Fish and the Fins, who needed a place to hide from the crowd while they practiced. Flash Cadillac and the Continental Kids, who we assume remembered Richie from American Graffiti, where they were under a different name at the sock hop, played them. Small world isn’t it?

Harry Angel (Mickey Rourke) is hired to track down pre World War II crooner, Johnny Favorite who (spoiler alert) turns out to be himself. We don’t really feel bad about spoiling the major plot twist, as really what this film is mostly known for is the graphic sex scene between Rourke and Lisa Bonet. We know that is why we watched it!

We will admit that if Willie Nelson is in it, we are hooked. The Red Headed Stranger played “Johnny Dean” in the 1997 dark film, Wag the Dog and recorded a song for political purposes. For reasons that we aren’t quite sure, the film (although did well) has been forgotten so quickly and will likely affect any chances that Johnny Dean has for our Hall of Fame.
