The Five Heartbeats (Movie)
1991 / Director: Robert Townsend / Avg Rating: 7.3 out of 10
In the early 1960s, a quintet of hopeful, young African-American men form an amateur vocal group called The Five Heartbeats.

Along the way, however, the guys learn many hard lessons about the reality of the music industry.
