 Good 'ol country music film October 27, 2008
George Strait is not really a big box office draw and not really a "great actor" but it was a good film, and George did pretty good for being his first movie, at least that I was aware of. The music was really nice. I went out and bought both the CD and DVD. The story line was pretty good but not an action pack film. If you really love George Strait you'll really love this movie !!

This is just a nice family movie with a great sound track. Worth spending money on.
Pure Country - A Pure Delight June 10, 2008
George Strait has been a headline country and western star for a long time now, and when he made this movie, he showed he was more than capable of holding his own in good company. What a shame this was his only film !
Colonel Tom Parker was a friend of Strait's manager and told him that George Strait had the same kind of charisma on film that the great Elvis Presley had,and that a movie career was his for the asking.
However, the long delays between takes, the endless sitting around on the set was not appealing to George and he was never keen to repeat the experience.
However, playing a singer who is sick and tired of the remoteness of his live performances, huge stadiums and lots of special effects, and no real contact with his audiences, was a role tailor made for an artist as good as George Strait.
His character Dusty, decides to escape the mindless existence he is currently living and walks away, hitches a ride and heads for anonimity.
It is while he is "on the run" that he meets a young woman rodeo rider, well played by Isabel Glasser who takes him home where he awakes with a cruel hangover to meet her family, including her father the late Rory Calhoun in one of his last roles.
The soundtrack of Pure Country was a best selling album for George Strait and stands on its own as a fine album. The song, I Cross My Heart sung at the end of the film became a favourite request at weddings, a beautiful love song indeed. Other great songs include Thoughts Of A Fool, The King Of Broken Hearts, Heartland, When Did You Stop Loving Me, and all are worthy of countless replays.
A good movie,great soundtrack, and George Strait - who could ask for more?
Pure Country DVD March 11, 2008
This is a classic cowboy, country music, feel good, handsome guy gets gorgeous girl movie. I have seen it about a half-dozen times and decided to buy it so I could watch it sans commercial interruption.
This one is a "keeper".
