Review: Dolly's 1999 made-for-tv movie has finally made it to home video. Dolly's musical and acting abilities both shine on this release. The movie, based upon Dolly's fictional story song "Blue Valley Songbird" features Dolly playing the read headed Leanna Taylor. The plot centers around Leanna trying to make it big as a country sginer by playing night clubs and fighting to get on a major label. Dolly songs featured in the movie are "Blue Valley Songbird", "Wildflowers" (peformed beatifully by Dolly accompanied only by her autoharp!!!), "I Hope Youre Never Happy", "Runaway Feelin". Two songs never recorded by Dolly, also appear in the moivie these are the gospel standard '"Angel Band" which is by far the BEST version ever!!! The other new track is the Dolly penned duet "We Might Be In Love" which is peformed several times as a duet by Dolly & co-star Billy Dean. This movie will please any Dolly or Billy Dean fan!

Summary: Highlight for many occasions
Review: This film is a blend of raw humanity and brutal honesty. It was so refreshing to see the issues delt with done with so much style and not the usual sentimental [stuff]. As a huge Dolly fan and a director of performance myself, I have only this to say: Yes, Dolly is not a Liz Taylor, but few performers has ever reached her level of honesty in character and emotion when it comes to playing any character. Instead of boring crocedile tears, Dolly shows us inner pain - as does this whole film. This is a movie for people that understand what it means to hide your pain so that the show can go on. Deeply moving and profoundly liberating if you are able to leave soap operas behind you for a minute or two.

Review: This is a great movie....Dolly Parton goes through a journey with many ups ans downs. She is a singer that is trying to make it big. She performs at a friend, Ruby's, bar. Will she make it big, or be stuck in the wrong gear?..highly recommmended especially Dolly fans!!

Review: this movie was on lifetime and i thought it was great. then i bought the dvd and it's super-spectacular. she does a nice accoustic version of "wildflowers" and there's this weird easter egg where if you hilite her eyes and press enter then you hear only the music and the soundeffects. pretty strange.

Review: Touching, simple, real-life like story, wonderful movie, with gorgeous music with Dolly sounding like an angel. Like every other Dolly fan I would love for someone somehow to publish
a copy of "We Might be Inlove" as it has never been released outside of the actual movie, and there is no soundtrack...
As for the "Editorial Review" The movie was WRITTEN based on Dolly's song "Blue Valley Songbird" off her "Hungry Again" Album, and the whole bit is to explain Leanna's origins, and how she came to be where she's at.... and to explain what's REALLY been holding here back through the years, so if you get beyond your opinion that Dolly can't act you'll see there's another depth to this story.... Highly recommended to anyone who loves Dolly, music and or Romance!!!
