A Review Of "Dolly Parton's Christmas Of Many Colors: Circle Of Love"
NBC News

Dolly Parton has always been a favorite of mine. From her big hair and smile, to her beautiful music, to her philanthropy, Dolly Parton never ceases to amaze me. Last year I watched her TV movie "Coat of Many Colors." This film was based on true events from her childhood and was named after a song she had written about her "coat of many colors." I loved the movie, and when I saw that Dolly Parton had another movie coming out, I couldn't be more excited! I finally had the opportunity to watch her latest movie, "Christmas of Many Colors: Circle of Love." It was phenomenal.

30 Movies That Are Perfect For Girl's Night In

"Dolly Parton's Christmas of Many Colors: Circle of Love" was another film based on events from Parton's childhood. This movie told the story of the Christmas that the family gave up their store bought gifts so their father could by their mother a wedding ring. It was a beautiful movie about love, faith, sacrifice, and family.

This film starred Dolly Parton, Alyvia Alyn Lind, and Ricky Schroder. It was directed by Stephen Herek. This TV movie was wonderfully done and is perfect for the whole family to watch; it has something everyone can take away: hope.

This Christmas movie deserves five out of five stars. The acting was fantastic, especially by the young girl playing Dolly. She acted just like you would picture a young Dolly Parton: mischievous, and full of life with a big grin on her face.

I would recommend this film to anyone who is a fan of Dolly Parton, period films, Christmas, and/or heartwarming films.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
