Starring John Travolta and Debra Winger, this film brought country music, mechanical bulls, and cowboy culture to the mainstream in a way that still resonates today. 🤠🎶
The sisters break down the movie scene by scene, from the whirlwind romance between Bud and Sissy to the unforgettable bull-riding competitions that defined the honky-tonk craze of the 80s. Along the way, they share fun trivia about the movie’s impact, its iconic soundtrack, and their own takes on the drama-filled love story.
