This is a fictionalized version of the Chess Records story, in which Beyoncé plays Etta James. James might not have liked Bey much, but this is a can't-miss film if you're interested in its subjects—not just Etta, but Muddy Waters, Chuck Berry, Little Walter, Howlin' Wolf, and the legendary Chess brothers, too.
