Get to the Heart: The Barbara Mandrell Story (1997)
Not believable
23 October 2014 - 2 out of 4 users found this review helpful.
I was a big fan when she had her TV show and was active. Maurine McCormick is NOT believable and was a very poor choice. Surely she wasn't the only option? I have no problem with Maurine McCormick but playing Barbara Mandrell is ridicules! Plus the fact that Barbara was drop dead gorgeous! I was glad to see they put the real Barbara on at the end. The whole 3 minutes of it. I thought it came off as kind of sappy. Barbara came off quite the opposite. She came off as a very genuinely sweet and lovely person with a lot of talent. Not hung up on herself like in the movie. Wonder what input she had in choosing the lead role.
