Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)My family and I love Pure Country. It is a simple and pleasurable movie with a predictable but delightful ending. While George Strait is not an A-List actor, he gives a solid performance. Besides, his list of lifetime accomplishments far outweigh most actors 10 fold.
Honeysuckle Rose is just packed with Willie Nelson tunes. While Nelson is also not an A-List actor, Amy Irving and Dyan Cannon certainly fit the bill. I'm partial to "Song For You", a tune Willie sings at the end of the movie. And, practically stealing the show is veteran character actor Slim Pickens, who comically swears with flair making "Honeysuckle" a "sweet" affair.

They're singing the songs...and living them. George Strait already had 25 chart-topping hits when he made his film debut in Pure Country (Side A). He plays Dusty, who ditches his superstar C&W career to rediscover his simple roots...and finds that the simple life can be complex when his manager (Lesley Ann Warren) retaliates. Next, in another savvy, song-filled slice of the performing life, Willie Nelson is On the Road Again for a film that's not autobiographical yet knows its highways and byways well. Dyan Cannon, Amy Irving and Slim Pickens join Nelson in a film that has the knack for providing the right song at the right time. Get on the bus. With Honeysuckle Rose (Side B) marking its DVD Debut, you can't help but go places.
