A Broken Family & A Wish Come True . . . .

This is like the third Dolly Parton Christmas movie I have seen, or maybe the second, and I always like them. While not being a big fan of country music, it was interesting how the film tried to educate the viewer about the presence of blacks in the genre. Yet strangely Charley Pride was never mentioned.Grace is a 14-year-old who wants to be a singer and songwriter. Her mother is dead set against that because her mostly absent father is a musician who never made it big, and who doesn't help much with the bills. Grace has to secretly practice the guitar at her grandmother's house, since her mother wants to sell it.Helping her achieve her music goals is her music teacher and choir director, the most interesting person in the movie, in my opinion. He is a failed singer/songwriter/composer himself from NYC. He also apparently comes from money, which was interesting in this Appalachian story.Forunately, this film is free of all Appalachian stereotypes, but is it stereotyping black fathers? Some would argue yes, but it appears to me to be trying to avoid seeing race as that important. Nevertheless, it does focus some on if a biracial teenager will have any chance whatsoever in winning a country music contest.Dolly Parton is the hostess of the final contest concert event, and she is always so appealing in personality. She gives special attention to Grace when she realizes her estranged parents are causing her so many emotional problems. This movie is foremost a story about a broken family.It really doesn't even seem like a Christmas story until the end, either. Moreover, the song Grace wrote and sings doesn't sound like a country music one to me. All and all, though, it's a nice clean film for the whole family that encourages pursuing one's dreams, and not being afraid of obstacles.

Dollywood 's Got Talent

What is a Christmas movie? That is a question I kept asking myself as I watched this movie. Most of the Lifetime Christmas movie plots center around the spirit of Christmas opening the heart of some long-lost curmudgeon, characters discovering the true meaning of Christmas or the story of somebody overcoming obstacles to get home for the holidays. This movie has none of those elements. In fact, you don't even see a Christmas tree until 1.5 hour into the movie. The movie felt like one of those personal interest clips they play just before some unknown talent goes on a reality show like America's Got Talent. The last 30 minutes of the movie feels like a long ad for Dollywood. The story is a formula Lifetime relationship movie where the characters resolve their irreconcilable differences in the last 10 minutes of the movie and live happily ever after.Worth watching when there is nothing else recorded on your DVR just to hear Desiree Ross' great voice or if you are a Dolly Parton fan. Otherwise, watch your other Christmas movies first!

Loved This Film

A Country Christmas Story, is a not-to- be-missed film about a young Appalachian girl who pursues her dream to become a country singer and journeys to Dollywood. Stars Dolly Parton, Brian McKnight and introducing Desiree Ross.This film is way above average. The film created a world that I wish did exist. The film has a charming lead Dolly kind of plays a guardian angel in this film. The end of the story might surprise many of you. The film is great entertainment. Even thought the film is classified as "A Christmas Movie" its really about a girl with a dream and a mother who disproves. It could take place in October. The film is runs a brief 90 minutes so you will never be bored.
