This film is so fun, unpredictable, and the music's terrific! I mean really phenomenal. I want the album! I have never heard of a Blue Grass Musical, so it has to be some kind of first (but don't quote me on that! It certainly was my first, and I LOVED IT). I adored the small town set, the lighting is colorful and vibrant and the incessant cicadas and immersive sound took me straight down to the South. This movie is like a play, mixed with a reality show and a beautiful rom-com all in one, with a lovely romance (and some weird cave action that will blow your mind, creep you out, and is really cinematic). It's clearly a low budget, but feels like a million bucks! The stellar cast brings these unique and bizarre characters to life, and none of them are as they seem. I was rooting for LouAnne the whole time. Mary Sarah's voice is incredible! I recognize Raquel Castro from "Jersey Girl" and "Empire" which was fun and she can dance!, The woman who plays Cyndi is in everything from Disney to Netflix, and her show-stopper song, "Light a bag of $h*t" on fire is FIRE! This movie, play, musical, reality show, film, or whatever genre or medium it is, is so strange that it's intoxicating! Also, I may or may not have a crush on the preacher...
