- Surprising deeper subplot!
Since Dolly Parton is such an upbeat, playful persona, I only expected to have fun with this film. I was happily surprised by the integrity message that the film wraps up with. I also appreciated the cautionary note about turning one's major life decisions over to a talk radio (or television!) host who only has a few sound bites about your life.

- IT'S ONLY ME, BUT:
DOLLY'S CHARACER TAKES A JOB AT A RADIO STATION ON A TALK SHOW AND IT IS NEVER QUITE THE SAME. THE LISTENERS LOVE HER. HER BOSS IS GOING NUTS DUE TO ALL THE CONFUSION BUT THE RATINGS ARE SOARING. AND SHE IS CREATING HAVOIC FOR AN INVESTIGATING REPORTER TRYING TO DIG INTO HER PAST. GOOD MOVIE. JM

First things first to those who have indicated the film is cropped to 4:3, actually it's not. It's an open-matte transfer, which means the area at the top and bottom that would normally be cropped during projection is left open.

As for the film, it is delightful, if completely improbably. Still, Dolly is her usual charming, watchable, comical self. She gives the rather formulaic plot a lot of heart. A cast such as this (Parton, Woods, Orbach, Bosco, etc) could have been used more effectively, but the film manages to entertain and ... Read More

- country girl in the city
Parton portrays a country girl moved to the city and does a superb job of it. Some funny moments and some tender ones too. Excellent movie for the whole family.
