Patsy & Loretta

A well made film depicting the friendship between two queens of country. The tone felt sincere and yet respectful. Both actresses played their roles well and they had good chemistry. A heartfelt tribute and well told story.

I grew up LOVING Patsy Cline & was obsessed with the movie Sweet Dreams ( movie based on her w/Jessica Lange playing Patsy) We got to see very little about her friendship with Loretta Lynn but some on the Cole miners daughter movie, so I was VERY excited to see this movie. I thought Mehan Hilty did an AMAZING job playing Patsy so much so I didnt even see Megan only Patsy. Muller did a great Job playing Loretta & seeing their friendship & then how Lynn's youngest was named after Patsy put tears in my eyes . I LOST it When at the end you see how Loretta helped Charlie out after his breakdown of losing his wife & how it effects her. I balled!! Idk how much is true but I do know that Julie Fudge ( Patsy's daughter) & Patsy Lynn ( Lorettas' daughter named after patsy) was involved with the movie I saw their names involved in producing. If you are a fan or grew up like I did loving Patsy, ( even though i was only 10 years old when the 1985 movie Sweetdreams came out) no matter how old you are you will truly love this touching movie of friendship between 2 lovely talented ladies that stuck together instead of trying to be in competition with in a cut throat industry having each others backs. It really was great story!

2 broadway stars in a musical biopic of 2 country stars. What's not to like. Unlike previous movies about the 2 Singers they don't have to be dubbed. Megan Hilty looks like Patsy Cline and she sings Crazy wonderfully. Jessie Mueller plays Loretta Lynn. But its hard to understand their accents sometimes cause they aren't from the South. The story isn't a full biopic of the ladies but concerns their friendship.

Worth a watch.

Two very talented women with marvelous voices are cast as Patsy and Loretta in this Lifetime movie. I was blown away by Hilty however. Her portrayal of the bodacious and larger than life Patsy Cline was so convincing that I found myself smiling whenever she was on screen. The script was typical Lifetime stuff and undeserving of what they could've given to the roles.

Both actresses have great chemistry together and do a fine job as country legends Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn, but Megan Hilty is truly outstanding as Cline. She fully embodies the character with great humor, warmth and vulnerability.

The film's focus on how the women's friendship developed is refreshing, as opposed to the typical biopic storyline of "then this happened, and then I got famous, and then this happened..."

It's also nice to have two wonderful singers playing famous singers, as opposed to actors lip syncing the legendary songs.
