Pure Country

It's been many years, but last night as I was channel surfing, I ran across the move Pure Country on CMT. That movie and I go way back and I hadn't watched it since my high school years. 

I was in love with the movie. 
I bought jeans like Harley Tucker wore. (It didn't matter that I didn't have a horse let alone rode one) 
I wore the soundtrack out. 
I wanted to live where it was filmed. 
And I only ever watched it with one certain boy in high school.

Sometimes we watched it, sometimes we talked, sometimes we both fell asleep, but it was 'our' thing. I remember thinking the movie was never long enough. haha. It's odd how somethings just put a person right back where it all began. It's also where I first fell in love with the actor Kyle Chandler who played bad boy Buddy Jackson in the movie. He now plays the lead in Friday Night Lights. In the end, I wouldn't have traded any of those Pure Country movie nights for anything.
