When I was learning guitar I devoured the 'Crossroads' movie and accompanying soundtrack.
One of the world's mightiest axemen, Steve Vai, had a starring role (as did his Charvel San Dimas guitar). It was great to air guitar along to Steve's pyrotechnic fingerwork, hoping that one day you'd be able to get at least one-thousandth as good.
As for Karate Kid, Ralph Macchio, who took the lead role, well he was even more motivational. He had never played guitar before he shot this flick, so clearly, with intensive training, anything was possible for a newbie strummer.
Check out this battle for proof of the goodness that this oft-overlooked cinema classic served up.
