"This makes it less of a musical miracle and more of the outgrowth of a fan’s imagining at a desperate time. But that’s OK. It’s only then that we begin to take an emotional journey with Kevin as Dolly’s music — as well as her famously upbeat, empathetic, positive-thinklng, straight-talking, no-nonsense attitude — brings him out of his funk, lifts him up, offers him a real-world perspective, and gives him the new-found confidence to start anew.
Doesn’t that sound a little, well, corny?: It could be in lesser hands but as staged by Gabriel Barre and performed by these two extraordinary actors, it works.”
