The movie has been directed by Shana Feste, who had previously directed ‘The Greatest’. The movie has an impressive star cast, including Gwyneth Paltrow, an Oscar winner. Paltrow garnered worldwide recognition for her performance in “Shakespeare in Love,” for which she won an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award and two Screen Actors Guild Awards.

In short the story unfolds with a rising young singer-songwriter (Garret Hedlund) falls for an emotionally unstable country star (Gwyneth Paltrow), the duo then board on a career resurgence tour helmed by her husband/manager (Tim McGraw) which also features a beauty-queen-turned-singer (Leighton Meester).

The movie does look very promising. But whether it actually manages to strike a chord with the audience would only be revealed after 7th January- its world wide release date. But until then let’s keep humming the original soundtrack of the movie which is also called ‘Country song’. It’s a beautiful and soulful song and the lyrics successfully capture the core essence of the movie.

“Cause I’m country strong
Hard to break
Like the ground I grew up on
You may fool me
And I’ll fall
But I won’t stay down long
Cause I’m country strong”
