![]() And, of course, being a biography, the film will appeal to viewers who like real life stories. "Sweet Dreams" will appeal to older viewers, as well as to those who like country/western music. ![]() The film's climax is not entirely consistent with known facts but it is very dramatic. And my main complaint about this film is that too much time is spent on him, rather than on Patsy and her career. Charlie Dick comes across in the film as a jerk. Patsy was talented, ambitious, frustrated, determined, and outgoing. With Jessica Lange, Ed Harris, Ann Wedgeworth, David Clennon. Profuse country/western music helps make the film even more enjoyable, though I wish they could have found a spot in the film for "Faded Love", one of Cline's most popular songs. ![]() Overall acting quality is credible, with good performances from Jessica Lange as Patsy Cline reliable Ed Harris as Patsy's redneck husband, Charlie Dick and wonderful Ann Wedgeworth as Patsy's mother. The film's plot is straightforward and easy to follow. The story takes place mostly in the 50s and 60s during which time she had already begun singing in local honky-tonks. ![]() As a cinematic biography of country/western singer Patsy Cline, "Sweet Dreams" is fairly good. ![]()
