What I Saw the Light is
Hank Williams biopic without the mythmaking. A talented but self-destructive singer climbs the country charts in the 1940s while his marriage and health unravel. Delivers a raw portrait of fame’s cost, carried by a gaunt-faced Tom Hiddleston in a performance that never winks at the audience.
