Coal Miners Daughter

Coal Miner's Daughter is an amazing true story based on the book Loretta Lynn wrote with George Vecsey. It was the first country musician autobiography to hit the bestseller list and sold more than a million copies in six weeks. When bringing Loretta's story to the screen, director Michael Apted assembled an incredible cast: Sissy Spacek (who won an Oscar® for her role), Tommy Lee Jones, Beverly D'Angelo and Levon Helm. What resulted is a remarkable tale of arousing love affair and a woman's triumph in making her name in the world.'

Critic Reviews:

• " Highly conventional stuff, but lovingly constructed to produce unremarkable but heart-warming entertainment. " – Geoff Andrew

• " Superior biopic with an unforgettable performance by Sissy Spacek " – Jon Niccum
