Coal Miner's Daughter A Classic

The film "Coal Miner's Daughter" was released in 1980 and it is the true story of country singing legend Loretta Lynn.  The film is a revelation.  Tommy Lee Jones and Beverly D'Angelo also star in this but it was Sissy Spacek who got all the awards and attention.  Tommy Lee Jones and Beverly D'Angelo were just as good.


Now the story is a "Cinderella Rag's to Riches" and what makes it so inspiring is the fact it is a true story.  It maybe the "All American Story" but so what it is a story worth watching.  It has been 33 years since this film was made.  If you watch it now it holds up and maybe even better then you  remembered.
