Falling From Grace

Released 1992
Stars John Mellencamp, Mariel Hemingway, Claude Akins, Kay Lenz
Directed by John Mellencamp
 
Rock singer John Mellencamp makes his screen and directorial debut in this story by "Lonesome Dove" author, Larry McMurtry. The story, not too separated from Mellencamp's real life, finds him as a country music star whose meanderings and philandering has thrown his life into turmoil. He returns to his native Indiana to try to reestablish a normal life. This is a big mistake. 1
