The One Who Loves You
It’s 1974. Gloria Bethune has failed as a singer in New York and returned to her lifeless hometown. She clashes with her sister, and is sent packing to a rooming house, whose one other tenant is Roy Hutchens, a charming looser who has run out of bridges to burn. Early in their acquaintance Gloria alludes to her singing aspirations, and despite her beauty and optimism, Roy recognizes the tragic flaw of a victim in her. He invents a story about himself being the former husband and manager of a famous country star. And it goes from there… Enhancing the 1970' flavor of "The One Who Loves You" is its roots-inspired Country soundtrack, which features music by the critically acclaimed singer-songwriter Phil Lee (“The Mighty King of Love”). Lee also performs onscreen in the role of Jimmy Earl, a down-on-his luck one-hit wonder. The movie also includes a new recording of Lee’s “I’m The Why She’s Gone” by hard-core country maverick and Austin Music Hall of Famer Dale Watson, as well as scorching performances by country Academy of Country Music Awards nominees Jann Browne (“Ain’t No Train”) and Joy Lynn White (“One More Time”).
