** When Rose meets her idol Billy Ray only to be turned down and criticized by h because he disapproves of her covers of his songs and tells her never to do such again. Even worst is that her manager Rudge knew about his hostility and went along with it anyways because he was going to sign Billy Ray on his record deal.

*** Where she shines, and the movie excels, is in the stage performances. Midler, as Rose, puts so much into her performances, that you can almost sympathize with her whining about being tired. They are physically and emotionally draining for her. *** Midler gives the soundtrack her all. Along with the title song, the stand outs are "Midnight in Memphis" and "When a Man Loves a Woman".

** A a brutal rendition of "Stay With Me" at the climax with Rose desperately pleading for her life in song. The theme of the movie is how everyone always leaves her alone in the end. Her last words onstage are a whispered query, “Where you going...? Where's everybody going...?”.
