Too much about the plot just didn't add up, the writing was bad, some of the scenes were cringey and awkward,

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Singer, Leanna Taylor, is in a comfortable rut; touring with her band, singing at the same places and living with her manager of 15 years, who, as the movie unfolds, is seen to be a manipulating father figure.Into this mix a couple of new elements are added; a new band member who sees her genuine talent with fresh eyes, word that her father (whom she hasn't seen in 25 years) has died, and a talent scout spots her and relights a hope of going the next step in her career. With flash backs that explain her personal history, she finds herself moving away from the her safe place and opening her eyes to what maybe out there for her now, if she's willing to take the chance. The music is delightful, the acting is believable. The ending is not a disappointment to the romantic hearted.

Joe's performance as the "Stetson Man," a male stripper who was Dolly's "birthday present", made that scene as great as it was! It was all so "real" with Dolly getting embarrassed a little, and Joe laughing as he danced for her. I was saddened that he didn't have more exposure in the movie... I mean dressed and acting more, of course! The movie on a whole was wonderfully entertaining and very touching. I would like to see more movies with Joe Tinoco in them and with more significant roles.

We enjoyed the movie and would like to see Joe Tinoco in More movies, he is very magnetic/multi-talented.... . Loved it. Sort of a strange part Joe played, if you knew him, it would freak ya out, he is so shy. but a great and talented hard working kid. Dolly was great!! Dolly is fantastic and she has worked hard to become the legend she will remain! Great cast. Hope to see more good Country Movies on Lifetime TV, can you tell we are Country Fans? Thank You Barb
