When Lorna Davis (Dolly Parton) a Country Western Singer
becomes disenchanted with her life as a recording artist/songwriter she told her agent she needs to get away from it all.
And, her agent Ned (Rene Aberjonois) told Lorna he understood and
she can leave for her vacation after 90 days.
Lorna walked away murmuring to herself no one understands.
She is completely burnt-out from always recording, performing, writing songs
and never resting. And, something is missing in her life and she needs to find
out what.
Later that evening, an irritating paparazzi reporter named
Harry (Dan Hedaya) climbed up to Lorna’s bedroom window and begged to be let in
because of three guard dogs below him that would surely eat him alive. She let him in and call4d for her butler to throw him out.
Harry left alone a few minutes in her bedroom took pictures while Lorna summons her butler. And, one picture was directions to her friend Mary Lou’s
grandparent’s mountain cabin. The cabin was not far from where Lorna grew up as
a child and always visited her parents; until their death and now
she has no one to come home to see.
So with her plans made---she packed and left for her Smoky
Mountain vacation---and did not tell anyone where she was going. No one knew
but her friend Mary Lou and Harry the grossly annoying paparazzi who followed
her.
The next day Lorna is driving down the snowy mountain
highway to her long awaited vacation cabin, when she is stopped by the Sheriff
John Jensen (Bo Hopkins). Sheriff Jensen mainly stopped her to flirt with a new
woman coming to town.
Finally, after admitting Lorna had not violated any laws
with her driving the Sheriff regrettably let her go. However, the Sheriff’s
flirting did not go unnoticed; because Jezebel (Anita Morris) the mountain
witch who proclaimed him as her property---and no one else could have him. Jezebel
told him she would put a spell on the blonde if she stayed too long in her
area.
Lorna found out after the first night in the cabin that she shared
it with seven children.The children found Lorna asleep in her bed and because she was so
tired she did not awake until morning. They thought she was an Angel at first.
She was surprised the next morning by the children and suspected they were
run-a-ways. But that did not stop her and the children from becoming a family
unit before they realized it. Slowly, the empty void began to vanish as Lorna’s
life started to mean something again.
Jezebel visited the cabin one night and put Lorna under a spell. And, lead her to the edge of a cliff. Mountain Dan (Lee Majors) saved Lorna from falling off into a mountain river many feet below.
Dan told Lorna about the Mountain Witch Jezebel and she
admitted that her Granny wore charms to keep the evil spirits away. Dan showed
Lorna his charms and said Jezebel was for real.
This is a great family movie and it has a wonderful ending
that I will save for you to find out. Enjoy with your favorite popcorn and
soda. May your Holidays be bright and merry.
