Thanks to a hit podcast and a new Netflix show, people are more aware than ever that Dolly Parton is, simply, the best. So we asked her: How can we be more like Dolly?
The universe just feels a little more magical when you're at Dollywood, a phenomenon host Jad Abumrad describes in his popular podcastIn episode three, "Tennessee Mountain Trance," Abumrad describes feeling an almost dreamlike sensation while touring the park. I felt it firsthand too: While I was there, I received some disappointing personal news and started tearing up.
Parton, I think, would be pleased with this sentiment. "I always ask for God to use me and to help me do something," she told me earlier that day. "To throw a little light on things and lighten the burdens a little bit if I can."which is now streaming on Netflix. Each episode is inspired by a different Parton song and features actors like Melissa Leo and Bellamy Young in heartwarming tales about friendship, family, and love found and lost that always, always end happily.
We don't know if people are really that interested in that kind of stuff. I just know for myself, I'm such a hopeless romantic, and I love love stories. We had a lot of love in the show. But we touched on all kinds of subjects. We touched on things that are sensitive to people, but also things that are meaningful. We touched on things that really need to be addressed in ways where everybody could have their own part in it.
Well, I think it's always important for us to be allowed to be who we are, all that we are, and appreciate that. And I know being a woman in this world...I've always been proud that I was born a woman, and I've joked that if I wasn't, I would have been a drag queen. That's my favorite line, but it's probably true. I love being able to express myself, and I want to be seen and appreciated for who I am. So I've always appreciated and loved people for who they are.
But as far as addressing the issues of women in these movies, that's a natural thing for me as a woman and being a writer. That's what naturally I would write. But being from a big family of brothers and men that I love, I'm able to write from their perspective as well. I just know that it's important, like with "Jolene," how it turned out that it's about women supporting women.
