Amazon.co.uk Review

Sissy Spacek won a much-deserved Oscar for her lead in this entertaining biography of country-music legend Loretta Lynn. British director Michael Apted (Gorillas in the Mist) brings fine texture to the Kentucky backwoods section of the film, where the teenage Loretta meets her future husband (Tommy Lee Jones), who ultimately pushes her into show business. Lynn's adult life is well covered, from her spouse's philandering to her own on-stage crackups; but between the chapter-and-verse recollections, the script by Thomas Rickman is layered with life and moments of great humour. No wooden portrait, this is a vibrant film made outstanding by the colorful performances of the two leads, as well as Beverly D'Angelo and the Band's Levon Helm. --Tom Keogh

4.0 out of 5 stars Sissy Spacek and Tommy Lee Jones shine, 14 April 2001
By A Customer
This is the true life story of Country Music legend Lorreta Lynn's struggle from rags to riches. Sissy Spacek won an Oscar and supposedly did her own singing! Tommy Lee Jones playes supporting husband Mooney and Beverley D'Angelo gets to portray Patsy Cline. It's a truly great film, even if you're not a Country Music fan! I first saw this film twenty years ago and I can still remember certain details like the misery Lorretta Lynn lived in the Virginia Mountains before Mooney took her away.

5.0 out of 5 stars truly rags to riches, 29 Oct 2009
By C. N. Windsor "chas windsor" (stamford lincs) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
i recently puchased this brilliant dvd and was absolutely thrilled to see how the very talented LORETTA LYNN worked her way from a very immature girl to an international country and western artist. SISSY SPACEK played her brilliantly and sung the songs to perfection and TOMMY LEE JONES starred as MOONEY although a little wooden at times. i must also mention BEVERLY D;ANGELO for her role as PATSY CLINE a wonderful likeness. altogether a first class dvd which i am sure will thrill any fan of this fabulous singer.
