country singers who turned to acting
Anglsunday
interest to me, how many artists can you name that have acted in either made
for tv movies, or big screen movies? (or, for that matter, guest starred on tv
drama's comedies, what have you) Who is your favorite? Who do you think should
never step foot in front of a camera again unless to do a short cameo? who has
had the most success? Who has appeared in the most on screen performances?
well, that ought to keep us busy for awhile! LOL but seriously, its an
interesting topic, at least IMO.
Angl...who hopes she has not totally bombed in this attempt to get interesting
conversation going....

Well, Reba was in Tremors (great movie!), Randy Travis did a Christmas ep of
Touched By an Angel (ugh), and Dwight has been in several things, most notably
Slingblade, but also Red Rock West, and I think a few more.

He played a real hard ass and did a good job. It's a bleak movie though.

And the horribly bad "Walker, Texas Ranger". I think I saw previews for

Randy Travis was the best thing about the truly awful movie Black
Dog. It's almost worth it just to hear him, uh, 'sing' or not 'sing' or
whatever you want to call what he did in that movie.

financial disaster.
I'd say Reba and Randy Travis have enjoyed the most success of the current crop
acting in various projects. I'm very surprised we haven't seen Ms. Twain in any
movies.

That's funny because I hated Randy's voice until I saw that movie. It was
nails on a chalkboard until I heard "My Greatest Fear" that song is very
pretty, IMO. I thought it was very cool that he was able to make fun of
himself in that movie by playing a terrible singer, my opinion of him before I
saw the movie. I now hear his voice as very nice and dramatic. I think he's
got some good qualities in his voice, now that I've given him a fair listen.

This sort of counts but he was doing rock at the time,
Conway Twitty starred in three features in the late '50's & early '60's. Only one
of them is on VHS, it's called
Platinum High School.

Dwight Yokum was good in "Slingblade" and "Roswell".
Reba is surprisingly a good actress in just about everything she does.
The Dillards on the "Andy Griffith Show"-Never talked, but played funny
characters.
Jerry Reed in "Smokey and The Bandit"-Maybe my favorite
I'm about as big a George Strait fan as you will find, but his acting
wasn't that great. Good movie though. "Pure Country"
I heard Garth say he wants to do a movie-More $$$$$$$$$$!!-Please just

IMO, Dwight could do very well for himself if all he did is act. Don't let him
know, though; he might stop putting out those great songs!

Didn't see Roswell, but he was very good in Slingblade. Scary as heck. I've
always found Dwight almost painfully sexy, but I had to take a while to recover
from Slingblade before I could see him that way again...
Yes, Dwight is a good actor.

Aside from "Maverick" (which others have already mentioned), Clint
Black was also in "Cadillac Jack", or whatever that movie was called,
with his wife.
Lisa Brokop was in "Harmony Cats".
And I *think* Trisha appeared on an episode of "Ellen".

Maggie Smolkovich
in "Sweet Dreams". Don't know how acurate the movie was regarding the
relationship between Patsy Cline and Charlie Dick, but I LOVE the movie

great. (of course, Ed Harris is one of THE best actors around anyway).

opera "Capitol." Bill Anderson had a recurring role on the ABC soap
"One Life To Live," playing himself. Reba also made a cameo on OLTL a
few years back. Bryan White did a cameo on "The Bold and The
Beautiful." And, LeAnn Rimes did a three-day role on "Days of Our
Lives" in which she played a runaway.
Tammy and K.T. Oslin did an episode of "Evening Shade" in which they
played a singing duo who were old friend of Murleen (Ann Wedgeworth).
Loretta Lynn made cameo appearances as herself on "The Dukes of
Hazzard," "Big Dreams and Broken Hearts: The Dottie West Story" and
"Roseanne." She also did a dramatic part on "Fantasy Island." If I
remember correctly, she was also in a country music movie back in the
mid-'60's. I believe it was called "Forty Acre Feud."
Garth did guest spots on "Empty Nest" and "Wings."
Brenda Lee made a feature for 20th Century Fox called "The Three Little
Bears."
Jim Reeves made the feature film "Kimberly Jim" in South Africa.
Bob Wills had some movie roles, as did Faron Young. One of Faron's
roles was "The Young Sheriff," which gave him his nickname. Ernest Tubb
made a movie of his life story in the late '40's, and there was, of
course, the film "Grand Ole Opry" in which all the big Opry stars from
the early '40's appeared.
Ernest Tubb, Roy Acuff, Minnie Pearl and Merle Kilgore all had parts in
"Coal Miner's Daughter."
Stonewall Jackson played an Opry announcer in "Sweet Dreams," which
also featured Boxcar Willie, Fred Young (drummer for the Kentucky
Headhunters) and Charlie Walker. Riders In The Sky portrayed The
Jordanaires in the Opry scene.

wasn't one of those conway movies entitled "sex kittens go to college" or
something like that?
oh and lets not forget kenny rogers endless series of gambler movies, the big
screen bomb "SIX PACK", Coward of the County, the one with travis Tritt and
naomi Judd "Rio Daiblo" and "Wild Horses"
then there is Jimmy Dean's "Big Bad John" movie..which is hard to find....

She was also in the movie "The Thing Called Love," as herself. It was of the
few interesting moments of the film.
Mark Collie has done some acting--he was really good as Johnny Cash in "I Still

quite as capable in their thespian endeavors as some of the others mentioned
have been.

I know Ricky Van Shelton did a Baywatch,
and you all missed my favorite...Dolly Parton did a lot of movies and TV, but
my favorite so far (on TV, anyway) was one she did with Ray Benson about an
abused wife. I just wish I could remember the name of the TV movie. I know
he played the leader of a band she sang in and was her closest friend. Ray
emerged the best actor out of all of 'em! He really is good!!!!
Hey, Bus...do you remember the name of it?
Let's not forget her "Nine to Five", too. As I remember...it was pretty darn
funny!
Johnny Cash has done both TV and movies, Willie and Kris have,too. Barbara
Mandrell has done a lot of TV. Sammy Kershaw did a movie, as well.

anything else, just so that his fans could meet him!! Garth has
recorded some of the best songs ever, puts on the best show and gives a
lot of money to charity!!! So I can see what a Big Ass he must be!:)
He is one of the few people who trys to do different things and not be
the same ol' Joe! I would love to hav the chance to do half the things
he has done! Is the whole point of Lee Ann's Song "I hope you dance"
about doing all that we can in life??? Now I am not a Garth Fanatic

Think so, but I forget the story. It turns out she was sexually abused
by her father, or her brother was really her dad, or the sherriff was
her father and no one knew or something really strange. I can't
remember!

Did either of them really have a career in music prior to the series?

No, The Dukes is what really made them. Their singing careers came
afterward. But their singing careers often get overlooked, so I thought
I'd mention them. John especially had a number of hits. In fact, Tracy
Byrd's new single is a re-make of John's "Love, You Ain't Seen The Last
Of Me."

Del Reeves, Wilma Burgess, Sonny James, Mamie Van Doren (!), Jane Mansfield
(!). And a bizarre dance scene with a bunch of bikers.
Highly recommended, and IN PRINT!
The sequel, "Hillbillies in a Hunted House" had Huskey again, along with Merle
Haggard, Sonny James, and the lady that played Lester Flatt's "Hollywood Wife"
on the Beverly Hillbillies. Lon Chaney and other monster movie stalwarts
appear in this one as well.
Both very bad, very strange, and ultimately entertaining movies.
Go to http://www.allmovies.com and start looking up your hillbilly heroes. I
have got to find "Road to Nashville!" and other grand ole opry themed movies
from the 60's.

Was Red Sovine in that movie? Someone told me a long time ago that he was, and
if that is true, I have to have that movie.

Surely some country singers must have shown up in Robert Altman's
Nashville -- what a great movie -- but I haven't seen it for *years*, so
I disremember. Anyone seen it more recently?

John was 17 when he was signed to do "Dukes." How much of a career have
most 17 year olds had?

John also had a mild hit but a GREAT version of Elvis' "Are You
Lonesome Tonight?"
That's my favorite Elvis song, but John's version is a very close
second.

Lets see well we all know George Strait made a movie, "Pure Country" which I
thought was a great movie. And Barbra Mandrell was recently on "Walker Texas
Ranger" last Saturday. And Leann Rimes was in a made for TV movie called
"Holiday In Your Heart" And appeared on "Days Of Our Lives" as a runway.
Reba McEntire was in a movie called "Tremers" and some made for tv movies.
Willie Nelson was in a few movies. Randy Travis was on "Touched By An Angel"
a couple of times. and was in a big screen movie with Steven Segal along
with him in that movie were Travis Tritt, and I forgot who else, but I think
it was Marty Stewart. And there's Clint Black that was in a made for tv
movie where he played a rodeo man who was framed for muder. And of course
there is Dolly Parton who was in severel big screen movies. And there is
Jerry Reed who was in all "The Smokey And The Bandit" movies. And there is
Hoyt Axton who was in a few movies, but the one I can think of now was
"Gremlins" If you don't know who Hoyt Axton is, he is an old country singer
from the 60's and 70's He's the one who sung "Della And The Dealer" He might
be too old for all you new country music fans. And I think I heard that
Sherrie Austin was on "The Facts Of Life" when she was younger, like in her
early teens during the last season of the show. And there is Charly McClain
who appeared on CHiPs and some other guest appearence on tv. And Loretta
Lynn made some guest appearence on tv, like "The Dukes Of Hazzard" And
"Rosanne" Lila McCann appeared on "Walker Taxas Ranger". And Waylon Jennings
was the narrorator for the "Dukes Of Hazzard" The Lynns also appeared on
"Walker Texas Ranger". Well, I have a lot more country singers to put down,
but I better let someone else take a shot at this.

Thanks. I'm the poster formerly known as Grandpa Jones. When I lived in
Nashville I sold Lulu Linda Ronstadt's "Whats New" CD. I also waited on Ralph
Emory every three months. He'd pull up, walk in, ask "where are your Barbara
Streisand CD's", go look at the Barbara Streisand CD's for awhile, and leave.
His head is made from wax.

way from Luke Duke. He had a singing career
(and is still being booked some for that), did another hit TV show ("Cybil")
and a couple of other Broadway shows. "Annie Get Your Gun" got him a Tony
nomination....
An added plus is that he's a real nice, thoughtful guy.
