Musical drama in which a young single mother in Glasgow dreams of travelling to Nashville to be a country singer.
A real foot-stomper, carried by spirited performances from Buckley, Walters and Okonedo.
Wild Rose is warm-hearted and inspiring.
Jessie Buckley impresses again in the story of a woman who wants and needs so much more. A seemingly well-worn narrative becomes a more interesting look at the responsibilities and rights of being a mother with a dream.
This is a sentimental, faintly unreal story: very well sung.
Buckley’s abrasiveness and charm covers over the creaky story.
A fiery Glaswegian singer and single mother dreams of Nashville glory in this gritty feelgood feature.
