PLOT Dolly Parton stars as Thiola "Big T" Rayfield, a struggling country singer who finds herself trapped in an abusive relationship with her new manager (Gary Busey). Also stars Dennis Letts, Ray Benson and the then-current lineup of band members from "Asleep at the Wheel" (Tim Alexander, Jim Finney, Michael D.
