In a million years, they never could have found someone better to play Loretta than Spacek. Not just cause she has the voice, but she has her mannerisms and personality to go with it.

[@christhompson3750]

Loretta picked Sissy to play her.

[@skylarsartnphotography3450]

Too bad though, when they the Johnny Cash movie, "Walk the Line" they needed more appropriate actress. Nothing against Reece, but it just wasn't JCC.....Sissy really could've done June justice!

"Coal Miner's Daughter" may have been the film that changed biopics. Before 1980, many were cheesy and idolized their topic, while CMD showed a lot of the rough times and hardships. Happy 70th birthday to Sissy Spacek.

[@jorgelopez-pr6dr]

Well, the Gene Krupa Story wasn't precisely too nice to him.

I don't think the movie got Doolittle right; he wasn't nearly as brash and obnoxious as Tommy Lee Jones portrays him.

[@jsuigeneris7767]

I love the cross-over here. Levon Helm is one of the greatest drummers (and singers) in rock who turned out to be a great actor too. Specek is one of the most distinctive actors who has a really natural-sounding country singing voice. It’s so satisfying to watch their talents on this well-written song
