"Dolly Parton's Coat of Many Colors" is based on the inspiring true story of living legend Dolly Parton's remarkable upbringing. This once-in-a-lifetime movie special takes place inside the tight-knit Parton family as they struggle to overcome devastating tragedy and discover the healing power of love, faith and a raggedy patchwork coat that helped make Parton who she is today.
The film is set in the Tennessee Great Smoky Mountains in 1955. It is neither a biopic nor a musical about Dolly's whole life and performing career, but rather a family-oriented faith-based story about the incidents in her and her family's life around the time she was nine years old.
Alyvia Alyn Lind will portray nine-year-old Dolly Parton, with Jennifer Nettles as Parton's mother, Ricky Schroder as her father and Gerald McRaney as her grandfather.
"Dolly Parton's Coat of Many Colors" is written by Pamela K. Long. She executive produces with Sam Haskell and Dolly Parton. The film is a production of Magnolia Hill Entertainment and DP Productions in association with Warner Bros. Television.
My Review:
I have watched Dolly Parton's "Coat of Many Colors" twice. The first time I watched it on TV live, by myself. The second time that it was on TV, I watched it with my three children ages 8, 6 and 3. I wanted them to see it. I felt that the movie tells a story about pushing through when life gets tough. It also tells children to be themselves and to be a great friend, and to get to know people for who they are and to not judge them, because you don't know where they come from, unless you take the time to get to know them. The messages in the story of Dolly Parton's "Coat of Many Colors" is for everyone, young and old. And the music in the movie is awesome! There is also a Holiday Sequel in the works!!!
