Dolly Parton: Here I Am

Really great older footage of Dolly and a timeline of her career. Cant figure out what Kylie M was doing there, added nothing and would have preferred more older footage.Jane Fonda was insightful

Fills in a lot of gaps for an old rock and roll fan who's grown to respect her songwriting immensely over the years. Great mix of interviews, performances and clips. However, I was confused about the overuse of interviews with Linda Perry and Kylie Minogue. Granted, Perry collaborated with Dolly for one hit single in 2018, but from her time on-screen, you might think that she had produced Dolly for decades. I also can't find any connection between Minogue and Dolly in my research. What would have pushed my rating higher would have been to include the glaring omission of her musical collaborations with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris. Their memories would have been much more revealing. The absence of her significant contributions to the movie Steel Magnolias is puzzling as well. She easily held her own in a movie that was bursting with talented actors. All in all, though, this one is worth a look.

I recently became more informed about Dolly Parton's impressive career, both in her early years and in her more recent projects. While I was grateful to find out more about her, I was disappointed to find that there was no mention of her friendship with Kenny Rogers. This was a significant part of her life that was left out, and it is strange that it was not included.

Kenny Rogers has since passed away, so I'm even more puzzled as to why Dolly Parton would not mention her friendship with him. It is a mystery that I hope I can get to the bottom of one day. Although I may never know why Dolly Parton chose to not include her relationship with Kenny Rogers in her story, I will always remember the impact he had on her life and career.

This was a brilliant documentary filled with great interviews with Dolly and old footage pieced together to give us a little insight to some of her biggest hits and how she became the star she is. I really enjoy it even though I wouldn't necessarily say I am the biggest fan.

Just a movie to watch how amazing and cute is Dolly Parton! She is so lovely, and talented. If you are her fan you must watch it. Dolly is stunning
