00:03 What's she doing?

00:04 How do you cheat on a writing test?

00:06 Miss Parton, front and center.

00:10 What'd I do?

00:12 Not you, sweet Stella Mae.

00:14 You.

00:15 Since you were so interested in talking during your essay test,

00:19 you can be the first one to read yours aloud.

00:21 All right, now, Dolly, please tell us

00:26 who your favorite famous person is and why you admire them.

00:30 Why, that's easy, Miss Moody.

00:33 It's Miss Dolly Parton, rising star of the Grand Ole Opry.

00:39 She was born on a cold winter's night

00:41 in Locust Ridge, Tennessee.

00:43 She was single before she could talk.

00:45 Doc Thomas swore she came out screaming in the TV.

00:48 Yeah, I bet.

00:51 Hey, this is my paper, and I can write what I want.

00:54 You can fail me, Miss Moody, but I get to see my piece,

00:57 don't I?

00:58 Tell me more about this star, Miss Dolly Parton.

01:03 Well, she was always surrounded by music,

01:07 not just her people, no, but by the very mountains themselves.

01:12 What do you mean by that?

01:14 I mean, ever since I was a baby, I always heard it.

01:19 The music.

01:20 Mountains make music that sound like angels singing

01:23 or devils fighting.

01:24 Depending on the weather and her mood.

01:27 She's had a heavenly choir owner ever since.

01:30 And then Miss Moody wrote on my paper, Miss Dolly Parton,

01:35 I think you've got some real potent

01:36 tails for expressing yourself and writing.

01:40 And what exactly do you think she means by that?

01:43 I have no idea, but I know it's good.

01:46 I think she meant potential.

01:49 Dolly has potential as a writer.

01:52 I praise coming from Miss Tallulah Moody.

01:54 She's a college girl, you know.

01:55 She's the smartest woman I know.

01:57 Since when?

01:58 Since she's seen my talent.

02:00 Here, Dolly, try this on, baby.

02:01 I need to see if it's long enough.

02:04 Miss Moody told me to keep working on my paper

02:07 and read it to the class next week.

02:10 Can you have my coat done by then, Mama?

02:12 I got to wear it for my reading.

02:15 Well, I'm going to need something

02:18 extra special for the lining.

02:21 I brought this for you coat, Dolly.

02:24 It's for my wedding dress.

02:26 Oh, thank you, Aunt Estelle.

02:29 It matches my eyes.

02:30 I know.

02:32 I got some old dirty drawers you could have, Dolly.

02:34 Nice color brown to match the dirt behind your ears.

02:37 As Mama worked on that coat, you could

02:39 start to feel the light flowing back

02:41 in our little mountain home.

02:42 Something dark had tried to steal our joy.

02:45 But with every color, every stitch

02:48 that Mama sewed on that coat, the darkness receded

02:51 and the light flooded in.
