The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas

[Dollydreams]

My favourite film of all time... I love it. I might be doing a stage play of it and playing Mona I love it that much lol. Its a shame it wasn't very nice to film for Dolly, I think when I found that out I kinda liked it less because it wasn't a happy experience for Dolly. But I still love it.

I know, but she did hide it well in the acting. i think that's why i like it so much, she managed to put aside her personal life and put herself in the part when she needed to be, that's a pro. Dolly is so amazing. But it is such a shame she didn't enjoy it as much as she could have, she said in her autobiography she always wanted to do film, and that musn't have been nice to have that happen during one of your dreams

i'm not old enough to see this movie so why is it called the best little whorehouse in texas?

[Dollydreams]

Yeah I always thought she did a great job acting in it after I foudn out all her personal problems during that time.

And 400Dollyfan how old are you? Because I was 14 when I saw it, it's really not all that bad. It's called The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas cuz its about a bunch of hookers. LOL.

Yeah, I first saw the movie when I was 12 and the only reason it's rated R is because of some swearing and partial nudity. I think these days, MTV is more explicit than that movie lol.

[Dollydreams]

LOL yeah true. You should see some of the stuff on there... plus I think my cousin watches MTV. She's 8. O_O *calls cousin RIGHT NOW to tell her to stop watching MTV* haha

[Dollydreams]

Lol sometimes if I'm feeling down or w/e I just shove on 9 To 5 or Whorehouse and I start singing along haha.

I've always loved this movie as well and I agree that Dolly's performance is very good. She has a powerful serious scene with Burt Reynolds that's very effective along with her usual scene stealing charm. One of my favorite scenes is the lakeside conversation between Mona and Ed Earl. It's humurous and moving even and I heard alot of it was improvised. Back in December I was lucky enough to see the film (along with 9 to 5 and Rhinestone) on the big screen. It was night of Dolly films at the Castro theatre in San Francisco. It was great as the audience sang along and cheered for Dolly in every scene. Was a blast!

The lake scene is my favourite, I didn't know it was improvised. I love it though, the improvising must have made it better.
