Memphis
The marriage of music and movies is best found in the city of Memphis, an icon of rock, pop, and soul. For a half-century it has been dubbed the "Home of the Blues" and the "Birthplace of Rock-n-Roll," but movie buffs know it has also starred in Hollywood hits and Oscar award-winning films. Whether chronicling the lives of legendary giants Jerry Lee Lewis (Great Balls of Fire; 1989) and Johnny Cash (Walk the Line; 2005), or setting the scene for the story of a pimp turned rapper (Hustle & Flow; 2005), the city's love for music is best characterized in its vibrant nightlife. Pair that with southern-style cuisine, and you'll find a number of ways to cure just about any bout of the blues.
