Win A Copy of Dolly Parton’s Joyful Noise!

Posted on by

Want A Copy of Dolly Parton’s Movie, Joyful Noise? Come and Get It!!! Dolly Parton‘s musical comedy, Joyful Noise, hit screens last year, and it’s now available for purchase on Blu-ray, but before you run out and get it, stop right there…you can win it here! Just comment below, and be sure to tell us all about your favorite Dolly Parton song! We will then randomly select one winner from the comments, and they will receive a blu-ray combo pack with ultra-violet digital copy! In case you missed what this fun-filled comedy is all about, you can check out the trailer and the official synopsis below! Don’t forget to comment! Watch the Joyful Noise Trailer! [youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AFLfwyX3rE&feature=BFa] Joyful Noise Summary Oscar® nominees Dolly Parton (“Transamerica,” “Steel Magnolias,” “Nine to Five”) and Queen Latifah (“Chicago,” “Hairspray”) star in Alcon Entertainment’s and Warner Bros. Pictures’ “Joyful Noise,” a funny and inspirational story of music, hope, love and renewal. The small town of Pacashau, Georgia, has fallen on hard times, but the people are counting on the Divinity Church Choir to lift their spirits by winning the National Joyful Noise Competition. The choir has always known how to sing in harmony, but the discord between its two leading ladies now threatens to tear them apart. Their newly appointed director, Vi Rose Hill (Latifah), stubbornly wants to stick with their tried-and-true traditional style, while the fiery G.G. Sparrow (Parton) thinks tried-and-true translates to tired-and-old. Shaking things up even more is the arrival of G.G.’s rebellious grandson, Randy (Jeremy Jordan). Randy has an ear for music, but he also has an eye for Vi Rose’s beautiful and talented daughter, Olivia (Keke Palmer), and the sparks between the two teenagers are causing even more heat between G.G. and Vi Rose. If these two strong-willed women can overcome their differences and find a common voice, they–and their choir–may make the most joyful noise of all. Important Guidelines! * Prize provided by Warner Bros. * Entries must be received by Friday, April 11th. * Winners will not be eligible for another prize drawing until 90days after this one. * 1 Winners will be drawn Friday, April 11th from comments on THIS post and will be notified individually.
