Reception
The Washington Post published a largely negative review of the movie, with critic Richard Harrington stating that "Unfortunately, television will be television, and the results are lackluster and somewhat misleading." However, James Wolcott, in a review of 1985's Sweet Dreams (in which Jessica Lange played Patsy Cline), called O'Toole "superb" as Wynette.
