Corrected entry: When Buddy borrows his father's truck - the name on the side is spelt Holly, not Holley which was the family name. The name Holly was only used for the records after it was incorrectly spelt on the first disc.
The Buddy Holly Story (1978)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Steve Rash
Starring: Gary Busey, Charles Martin Smith, Don Stroud, Conrad Janis
Factual error: In the final concert scene, Buddy is shown playing a 1965 Fender Stratocaster, a CBS era model with a large headstock and "fat" CBS era Fender script logo. Needless to say, it didn't exist in 1959.
