One of the most successful of country singer/songwriters to jump in the movie genre has been Dwight Yoakam, first being noticed in "Slingblade" with Billy Bob Thornton. Now, Yoakum's teamed up again with Thornton in a new movie entitled, "Jayne Mansfield's Car" with filming beginning this summer. He recently told the "San Luis Obispo Tribune", "Billy wrote a new screenplay titled 'Jane Mansfield's Car'. It's supposed to star myself, Billy Bob, and Dennis Quaid as three brothrs in 1969, who are ex-World War II vets wrestling with their own families and lives on a large cattle ranch in western Alabama." Here's one of my favorite Dwight Yoakum songs.
