THis movie is such a great one for a number of reasons. Number 1 It's based on a Dolly song 2. Great acting 3. Great Music 4. great storyline. It seems like every movie Dolly touches comes to magic( except Frnk McClusky C.I). I mean it just has a great thing about it a that a lot of people can relate to. Billy dean is great to you can tell that Dolly and him get along real well. The acting I would give a 9 out of 10. The storyline a 10 out of 10. The songs 10 out of 10. All i can say is look for it on Ebay or amazon you Will not be disappointed.This is a Made for TV movie so it is hard to find. Wow. So i would have to say watch for it on TV they usually show it on Lifetime.

I just saw this movie and thought it was great! I really liked the chemistry between Dolly and Billy Dean. I believe it was the best work Dolly has done to date. Kudos to her for stepping out of her comfort zone in comedy to do something a little more dramatic. The character of Leeana is really complicated because of her history, and Dolly pulled it off beautifully. In fact, each of the characters in the movie were well played by the actors chosen to play them. I couldn't believe that this was a made for T.V. movie. It was really well done in all aspects the location, costumes, writing and directing. I liked that the script gave just enough information when it was needed, so the audience was able to go on the healing journey with Leeana and live her "aha" moments with her. I love movies that inspire and empower, and this one does both.

Hey watched the movie and recorded it also. We have watched it a couple more times and enjoy it more each time we watch it. Joe is a great actor and would like to see him in more movies. Dolly is still as beautiful ever. She is still a great singer. Joe get to working on some of your songs and make them into a movie, so the whole world can see and hear you.

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.
