Dolly Parton's Coat of Many Colors
Dolly Parton's Coat of Many Colors, based on the inspiring true story of Dolly Parton's remarkable upbringing, is a once-in-a-lifetime television movie special. Set inside the close-knit Parton family, it follows their struggle to endure a devastating tragedy and their discovery of the healing power of love, faith, and a raggedy patchwork coat that helped make Parton who she is today. Set in the Tennessee Great Smoky Mountains in 1955, this film is neither a biopic nor a musical about Dolly's entire life and performing career, but a family-oriented, faith-based drama focused on the incidents in her and her family's life around the time she was nine years old.

**Family. Laughing together and grieving together.** A television film that I was eager to watch it since it is highly acclaimed. It is a Christian film, which won't mind, but they have highlighted that topic too strongly. What I've anticipated was something like 'Love Comes Softly'. Since it went on that way, missed the opportunity to be balanced in content. Now it is a target product for the believers. If you won't mind that, then it will be a good film that shows lots of good sides by pointing out the bads. Based on the true story, that sets in the 1955, tells the story of a big farmer family living on the mountain, but all the focus was one of the children named Dolly. She's different than rest of her siblings. She's curious about the world, so mischievous and a good singer too. Her latest trouble takes a big price. Following, the family in a distress, that's going to change a few things forever in her life and everybody else. First of all I know zero about the real Dolly Parton. Thanks to this film for her early life introduction, but still don't know much about her latter life. So expecting from the sequels to cover them up. For now, there's only one sequel, about the Christmas. Alyvia was really good. She reminded Abigail Breslin from 'Kit Kittredge'. The film mainly aimed for families, so they would surely enjoy it. I liked it too, but not that overexcited as before my watch. **6/10**
