Usual funny man Steve Carell leads the list o star in a biopic about songwriter Dennis Lambert, says Vulture.
Lambert was one of the top songwriters of pop music from the late 60's on into the mid 80's, working with such famous bands as The Four Tops and The Commodores
In 1972 his attempt to become a recording artist flopped when his debut album Bags and Things was virtually ignored upon release. Yet - a single from the album, "Of All the Things", became a massive hit in the Philippines and is still played at Filipino weddings even today.
Lambert was always asked to perform there but he declined until 2007 where he played five dates and managed to sell out a Valentine's Day concert at Araneta Coliseum
His son filmed the still unreleased docu Of All the Things about the tour and the studio is in negotiations for the rights to that as well.
