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.

DVD has no label of any kind. Quality of picture seemed closer to a video tape than a DVD.

“Honeysuckle Rose” story is like a country western song with some classic Willie Nelson music thrown in. Though not Oscar material, the performances of Dyan Cannon, Slim Pickens, and Willie Nelson are entertaining. “Pure Country” is an added bonus. I’m a George Strait fan, but this movie is nothing to get excited about.

Two movies about musicians on the road. An entertaining dvd that is especially endearing to all country music fans. I recommend them wholeheartedly.

My husband and I went to see this movie when we were dating, many years ago. I was so glad that I found it here, after much failure at my local stores.
I am not much of a country music fan, but this movie is one of my favorites.
The relationship that Dyan and Willie have seems like a true marriage. Honeysuckle Rose shows the daily life of a family at home and on the road; the happiness and struggles of what happens with separation because of road tours. So there is music, but not too much. This is one movie that you will pause if you need to leave the room.
