Rozza,

Songcatcher is worth seeing. If you are a historical purist it may annoy you, since it is fictional. I have known a few people to get annoyed at it. But there are good performances, both from actual trad singers and from actors who do a pretty darn good job. In addition to the soundtrack album, they put out a number of "music that inspired Songcatcher" CDs with folks like Doc Watson, Almeda Riddle, etc. Those are definitely worth it if you don't have those tracks on other albums already.
