I'm old enough to remember listening to Hank Williams. My father owned a radio station that played his music. I heard it as a young kid. Now the life of Hank Williams is coming to the big screen. " Hank Williams' life is being brought to the big screen, reports the Hollywood Reporter. Tom Hiddleston is set to portray Hank in the new film, I Saw the Light."  According to the article the film will be directed by March Abraham, the film will chronicle Hank’s rise to fame, including the toll the spotlight took on him, and his untimely death. "Production has secured rights to Hank’s catalog, which includes hits like “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry,” “Hey Good Lookin,’” and “Your Cheatin’ Heart.” Hiddleston will do his own singing in the film which is quite the departure from his recent movies, which have included Thor, The Avengers and Thor: The Dark World." http://blog.gactv.com/
