Before Mike Judge made them cartoons, this documentary explored the life of Jerry Lee Lewis by the PEOPLE who knew him best: little sister Linda Gail Lewis (i produced her first solo record in 15 years, International Affair 1991), and unbowed, relentlessly-crucified Myra Lewis Williams, the first Rock 'n' Roll girl, who not unlike Tracy Lords, nearly annihilated the entire music industry, innocently laying waste to the Killer's career for years - and the only reason Jerry Lee is alive.
speaks on Myra Lewis Williams at 6:52 where he says, "All for the Love of a Girl."

Clips borrow heavily from Tony Palmer's ultimate depiction of the Killer on his Golgotha, "All you need is love."
