DVD Review: A Classic Gem
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a movie that still holds up over time. This is filmmaking at it's finest.
With a British Director telling the story of Loretta Lynn he masters the ability
to see this american drama through fresh eyes looking past cultural cliche and
telling a real honest story that you will want to watch over an over.
Sissy Spacek is so believable in this performance it's haunting.
Great performances also by Tommy Lee Jones and Beverly D'Angelo.

DVD Review: A great movie and story for country music fans
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great movie for those of you who like Loretta Lynn as well as straight country music and the story of the artist who went through plenty to become a country music star. This movie is really good and tells the story well of a gal who was born in Butcher Holler Kentucky to a poor family and was the daughter of a coal miner who earned a poor mans dollar and then she courts as well as marries at a young age a man who is older than she is wild as the dickens and then he treats her like trash but no matter what she goes through she still loves him very much and he does do a good job as her manager turning her into a well known country music star. All of the cast in this movie all do a great job portraying the story of country music legend. If you want to get a great movie I highly recommend this movie for your enjoyment seeing a young lady who is a great country music singer making it up to the heights of country music stardom as the Queen of country music. Loretta Lynn.

Coal Miner's Daughter - 25th Anniversary Edition
Great movie for family night. Cissy Spacek did a great job portraying Loretta Lynn and kept me entertained the whole time.
Anyone who loves music should see this movie and would know how truly tough it is to break into the music business; this movie definately shows what it takes to make it famous.
Anyone who was or is poor can associate with the story this movie tells.
This is not a documentary but it does show a lot of history on Loretta Lynn and is enjoyable to watch...definately not boring!

Description of Coal Miner's Daughter - 25th Anniversary Edition

Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 02/06/2007 Rating: Pg

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 humor. 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
