Der süße Traum vom Glück (1985)
54KDer süße Traum vom Glück: Directed by Karel Reisz. With Jessica Lange, Ed Harris, Ann Wedgeworth, David Clennon. The story of Patsy Cline, the velvet-voiced country music singer who died in a tragic plane crash at the height of her fame.
“In one of filmdomu0026#39;s many biopics, Jessica Lange sinks her teeth into the role of country singer Patsy Cline. We see her go from a bored housewife to a national phenomenon over the period of a few short years before tragically getting killed in a plane crash in 1963 (although the movie focuses more on her personal life than on her career). Not surprisingly, Lange plays the role perfectly. Equally good is Ed Harris as Clineu0026#39;s philandering husband Charlie Dick. u0026quot;Sweet Dreamsu0026quot; is a movie that has something for everyone. Maybe we wonder how many biopics there can be, but that would miss the point. The point is to understand these peopleu0026#39;s personal struggles and all. And this movie does a very good job showing that. I wonder whether country music biopics will see a resurgence, now that u0026quot;Walk the Lineu0026quot; has made a splash.”
