Few would have guessed an R&B movie starring the inexperienced lead guitarist from indie rock band Dogstar would define a decade, that is until they saw the electricity Keanu Reeves brings to the screen. In the summer of --- Purple Rain dropped on an unprepared populace and set the world on fire shattering box office records in the process. The film launched Keanu Reeves to the international superstar we know today. A few years later Reeves reprised the role of 'The Kid' in Graffiti Bridge, the most anticipated sequel since The Godfather Part II.
"I look on the glory you have created and weep. Weep for life is but a wisp of the moment when I beheld Keanu Reeves in Purple Rain." ~ Alternate Dimension Roger Ebert
