    At only thirteen years of age, Loretta Webb marries Doolittle Lynn and is soon responsible for a sizeable family. Loretta appears destined to a life of homemaking, but Doolittle recognises his wife's musical talent, and buys her a guitar as an anniversary present one year. This gift sets Loretta Lynn on the gruelling, tumultuous path to country music greatness. (1980, directed by Taylor Hackford) This nation has a vibrant and unique musical tradition – and so does its cinema. This film and lively discussion series with Colorado College professors Dylan Nelson and Clay Haskell examines the role of American music in American movies, as a craft and as a subject.
