IS THERE LIFE OUT THERE — Reba McEntire stars as Lily, who is blessed with a loving, supportive husband (Keith Carradine), two terrific kids, and a close relationship with her father, Walter (Donald Moffat). All is well in ... more »Lily's life until a close brush with breast cancer and the death of her father make her keenly aware of her own mortality, and she realizes that something important is lacking. Since Lily sacrificed a college education to get married and have a family, both she and her husband agree that the time is right for her to go back to school and pursue her dream. Finding the time and energy to meet the demands of college life is especially tough for Lily, since she must work part-time as a waitress to help make ends meet. There is also a culture clash between the rarefied social air of campus and her husband's life as a carpenter. His supportive attitude begins to give way to exasperation and concern that his wife is slipping away from her family. Besides dealing with the academic challenge of the classroom and her husband's frustration, Lily must confront other difficult aspects of contemporary life on campus, which also threaten her marriage. The strength of Lily's resolve and the love she shares with Brad prevail, however, and both her life and her marriage are ultimately made richer.
BLUE VALLEY SONGBIRD
As a teenager, Leanna Taylor (Dolly Parton) fled her abusive home to sing on the road. And for ten years, she's been one gig away from making it big. Her controlling boyfriend and manager, Hank (John Terry, TV's Lost), is full of empty promises of success. Her new guitarist, Bobby, sees more in her than Hank ever did, or will. A new romance, a fading one, and a career on the cusp of collapsing--or exploding--has Leanna at the crossroads of a lifetime.
Based on Dolly Parton's hit song and filmed on location in the country music capital of the world, Blue Valley Songbird is inspiration for anyone who has ever chased a dream.
