I really really must admit I have a soft spot for old female country singers. There's something very comforting about it, don't ya think? Loretta Lynn first and foremost. She has such a powerful, ear catching voice. I feel like modern music just doesn't have that same passion anymore. The other day I put Coal Miner's Daughter at the top of our netflix queue and we received it a couple days later at which point I immediately popped it in my laptop and watched the whole thing through enjoying every second of it. Loretta Lynn is played by the amazing Sissy Spacek and her husband Doo was played by Tommy Lee Jones. The casting was just right. I swear I get giddy when a movie just seems so perfectly casted. The absolute best part about this movie was that Sissy Spacek SANG THE SONGS HERSELF. This woman has some pipes. Apparently, she was trying to break into the music biz before acting. Goodness she coulda made it.
Pop some corn and watch this movie!
