George! George! George! George!

Please put your hands
together for George Jones!

I've loved this man's singing
for more than half my life,

and I'm gonna enjoy myself.

White lightning

tense music

George,
this is Tammy Wynette.

God Almighty.

We're making the future
of country music over at Epic.

How long are you
practiced in being famous?

We live in a fast world.

Fast is
the only speed I know.

You're flirting with me,
George Jones.

And you're pointing your finger
at me, Tammy Wynette.

George Jones says
you don't need me.

But you're the one
who'd be nowhere without me.

I believe you have
to live a song to make it good.

You love me, right?

Yes.
- Then let's go!

There's a picture
that I carry

One we made

Some time ago

gentle music

These girls,
one after another.

Yeah, and this one
tried to leave her husband.

Mm.
- Four months pregnant too.

I see...
- It's such a shame.

...just a girl

I used to know

Just a girl

I used to spend
some time with

Got a right pretty
singing voice, there, hon.

Gonna make you
forget everything

that's troubling you.

Make things
like they were before.

Does that sound good?
'Course it does.

I don't talk
about the nights

I cried without her

I say she's just--

I'ma need you
to bite down on this.

All right,
take a deep breath.

This will be over
before you know it.

Mama?

When do we get to go home?

We're not going back there, baby.

I liked that house.

Yeah, it was a good house.

But there wasn't any love
in it.

Hello.

Hello.

Good morning.

Good morning.

Don't you still love me?

'Course I still love you.

Well, then,
why don't you kiss me?

Hmm?

Well, then,
why don't you kiss me?

Hmm?

Mm.
- Mm.

You didn't come back
last night.

I know.

Don was waiting for me
when I got home.

He had four squad cars
for backup.

Oh, no.
- Yeah.

Stealing a man's wife
is illegal in Tennessee.

But no Tammy,
no crime.

Hmm?

Is this crazy?

Yes, indeedy.
-

twangy guitar music

You ever been to Mexico?
- Uh-uh.

Oh, it's a fantastic country.

Tomorrow, you and me
are heading down there.

And in the morning,
we'll get you a divorce,

and in the afternoon,
a new husband.

Mexico can do that?

Mexico can do anything.

Who am I marrying?

Oh, shoot.
I forgot that part.

Mm, you did.

Which one?
- Um...

That one?

Yeah, that's the most ladylike,
right?

Okay.

Miss Tammy Wynette?
- Mm-hmm?

Will you make me
an honest man?

You make me an honest woman?

You bet.

Look.

Oh, good morning.
- Morning.

Well, uh, mind if I order
for the table, ladies?

We'll get five orders
of double stacks,

five sides of sausage links,
not patties--

Can I have
some hot chocolate?

No.
- Of course.

No. No.

Your mama said no,

but let the record show
I would have said yes.

You are Tammy Wynette.

How very dare you?

You recognized her
before you recognized me.

Oh, I recognized both of you
at the same time, Mr. Jones.

Okay.
Fair enough.

So are y'all here on a--
a breakfast date?

I can keep a secret.
I can.

I am devoted.

Thank you, hon.

And don't you worry, hon.

I won't tell a soul.

Town's gonna know
about us soon enough,

so we need to manage
everything just so.

Just so.
- Hey.

You have a scandal,
it just boosts your legend.

But for me, it's not the same.
- Hey, honey.

Honey, honey.

Nobody's gonna toss you out,
right?

You're with me now.

Do you think it's safe to go
to your place tonight?

My girls need a proper bed, and...

So does their mama.

My mattress is a deluxe.

Mm, I have no doubt.

How y'all doing tonight, huh?

That's good.

I'm feeling pretty happy
myself, thanks for asking.

Yeah, George.

Rollin'
in my sweet baby's arms

Rollin' in my sweet baby's
arms

Yeah, George!
-

I'll lay around
the shack

Till the mail train
comes back

Then I'll roll
in my sweet baby's arms

Whoo! Yeah!

I ain't gonna work
on the railroad

You ain't gonna work at all,
if you can help it.

I ain't gonna work
on the farm

I'll lay around the shack

Tammy,
your boots are so sparkly.

Oh, yeah, he took me out
to get me a whole new wardrobe.

You have to tell me.

What's it like making love
to George Jones?

Sheila!

Your husband?
Right here.

Sorry, Richey.
I know it's personal and all.

My curiosity just ran away
with itself.

Yeah, no.
You're embarrassing me.

We actually--

we haven't even done it yet.

Nice of him to buy you
boots first. [chuckles]

Now I know y'all have heard
a lot of chit-chat

about this next woman
who's gonna join me on stage,

on the radio and whatnot,
right, Peanutt?

Yup.
- That's what I heard.

Yes, it is quite the scandal.

Heard it on the radio

that I stole her
from behind Don Chapel's back.

Well, I'm here to tell you
there's nothing to worry about.

It ain't true.

I did it
right in front of his face!

And he ain't giving her back.

Mama was a beauty operator

I'm gonna get a beer.
- All right.

Sister can sew
and can mend

My daddy owns an interest
in an old sorghum mill

Just watching
all that money rollin' in

Rollin'
in my sweet baby's arms

I'll lay around that shack

Till the mail train
comes back

And I'll roll
in my sweet baby's arms

Look at
how they look at them.

George and Tammy are

every man
who ever loved a woman

and every woman
who ever loved a man.

Isn't that just poetry?

Not poetry.

Commerce.

And poetry too,
I suppose.

Rollin'
in my sweet baby's arms

I'll lay around that shack

Till the mail train
comes back

And I'll roll
in my sweet baby's arms

There you go.

There you, go, baby.

All right.

Hey, kid!

Oh, hey, Pappy.

Kid, let's us three
go for a drink.

Mm, thanks so much, Pappy,
but George and I,

we have some stuff
we gotta do at home.

Yeah, fun stuff.

This is a momentous
and happy turn of events.

You gotta let me celebrate you.
I insist.

Well, uh,

can we celebrate
when we get back from Mexico?

The fans love
seeing you in love.

Makes them happy.

We gotta get you
over to Musicor, Tam.

Get you singing
some real country finally.

Record some duets.
Seize this moment of love.

Pappy, you know
she's with Billy Sherrill.

Come on, now.

I thought she was with you.

You won't be thinking
about making a move

to another label,

'cause
the Emancipation Proclamation

made no provision
for hillbilly singers.

Mm-hmm.

That's right.
- Have a good night, Pappy.

Sorry.
- Yeah.

I'll see you soon, Pappy.

Drive safe.
- All right.

It can be like this.

Hey.

Oh, wow.

Well, well, well.

Look at you.

You want to watch this with me?

Mm.

You see?

I'll die.
I swear to God, I'll die.

He'll knock him dead
in that thing.

Hey, where's the photographer?

I've got to get some pictures
of him in that thing.

Hey, Joe!
Hey, Joe!

Maish!

You been to Spain?

Hmm?
- The--

Oh, no, I was just
in a Don Quixote period

when I was redecorating.

Well, it's pe--
it's beautiful.

Thank you.
I'm gonna get rid of all of it.

No, you--
- Mm-hmm.

You don't have
to get rid of it, silly.

I'm gonna build you
a whole new house.

You don't need to build me
a whole new house.

Come on,
put on the Indian hair!

The Indian hair!
We'll take

some funny pictures.

I don't want to be no clown!

That's Anthony Quinn
right there.

What are you trying to pull?

Mm-hmm. I love him.
- Yeah.

He's a boxer.

Once upon a time,
he was the best at what he did.

Went from fighting
Cassius Clay

to being ridiculous.

A sideshow.

Cut up in... so many pieces,

the man hisself's just...

He just--he just gone.

Hey.

It's just a movie, baby.

It's a true story.

They're gonna take it from us.

Take what, George?

Our fire.

No.

George, this love
I have for you is so big.

It scares me.

I can leave right now
if you want me to.

I'll just say
we were being silly, and...

...we'll take it all back.

But any later than right now...

...it's gonna be forever.

I love you.

I love you.

soft music

Yeah, there you go.

All right.

Hi.

All right.

Oh, I loved you
before I loved you.

Oh, George.

Glenn.
Call me Glenn.

Glenn?
- Glenn.

Hey, y'all!
- You're so lucky, Tammy.

Oh, I'm thankful every day.

George Jones
is the lucky one.

Congratulations,
Mr. and Mrs. Jones.

You stand by me

I'll stand by you,
my darlin'

We'll face
the world together

It's eternity whenever

If you stand by me

What?

It's working too hard.

Hmm?
- It's a love song.

You're putting conditions
on it,

and there shouldn't be any.

I met you two years ago.

In that time,
you've charted six times,

won a CMA,
and married George Jones.

That's right.
- You know,

those things
don't just happen

to skinny girls
from Alabama

who happen to have a catch
in their throat.

All right, Billy.

Sorry.

If I told you
your next single was gonna be

"Three Blind Mice,"
you say, "What key?"

Yes, sir.

What?
- Good, you're both here.

Is George around?

You two are not
legally married.

Tennessee doesn't recognize
Mexican divorces.

Liar.

Brother Paul here's a lawyer.

He wouldn't lie to you.

Oh, yeah?
Well, who are you?

Name's George Richey.

But everybody calls me Richey.

And I've been
your musical director

over at "Hee Haw" 11 times.

All right.

So I'm still married
to Don?

No, honey, I'm...
I'm your husband now.

The marriage isn't valid.
- I'll fix it.

No, baby,
it's not valid.

You need a legal-minded brain
on this, Jones.

Fixing stuff is my specialty.
- Oh, yeah?

Well, I got a brain, okay?

I got a real good brain.
- I know you do.

But let's
let Billy handle this.

Jones, this is
the kind of care

Epic shows for our talent.

When you're in our family,
we look out for you.

Yeah,
I see what you're doing.

Your love story's got
this whole town hooked.

Everybody's talking:
DJs, fans, newspapers,

every single promoter.

I mean, hell, that song
you recorded at Don's

is at number two.

By my count,
that's the first time

you've charted
in going on five years.

We gotta get the two of you
in a booth,

lay down some duets.

Do you have
the slightest idea

what it's gonna cost me
to get out of that contract?

Say nothing of loyalty.

Loyalty's a rare thing
these days.

She left her husband
for you, Jones.

The least you could do

is leave your pappy for her.

Today, I sat alone

At the window

And I watched

Our little girl
outside at play

With the little boy
next door

Like so many times before

But something didn't seem

Quite right today

When Tammy first got
to Nashville...

So I went outside...

...she knocked on
every producer's door in town.

What they were doing

Holes in her sweater

and three little girls
in a rusty station wagon.

Hmm.
- Planted herself

outside my door
till I came out.

I wasn't much in the mood
to hear another girl sing,

let alone one named
Virginia Pugh.

Mm.

I guess I was kind of curt,

'cause she started to cry.

Said I was her last chance.

And she told me
the producer before me

wouldn't even agree to hear her
till she slept with him.

Hmm.

She wouldn't do it.

It can't be fun

That man made her
feel worthless, Jones.

Mm.

Yeah, I know what the men
in Nashville get up to.

I been a culprit myself
a time or ten.

The way it's done

But I'm gonna protect her.

I'ma build her a new life,
and no one's gonna touch her.

She's my queen.

Yeah.
That's admirable.

Mm, I appreciate it.

Nashville ain't a safe place
to be a woman.

Way figure it.

Not too hospitable
for the male sex neither.

I want you
to think long and hard

about how Pappy
has treated you,

how he's propped you up
like a drunk fool

and taken your money.

You gotta ask yourself,

are either of you
really safe there?

And if that's
the way it's done

I don't want to play house

It makes my mommy cry

'Cause
when she played house

My daddy said goodbye

Hmm?

You hear that?

What?

Nothing.

Just silence.

Isn't that beautiful?

Mm.

slow country music

All right.

What else can we do?

All right.

You gonna count it, huh?

Pappy, we're ready to go.

Three, four.

Beneath still waters

There's a strong undertow

The surface won't tell you

What the deep water knows

Darlin', I'm saying

I know something's wrong

Beneath still waters

Your love is gone

Where'd you get
the new wheels?

He buy that for you?

Even a fool can see

That you'll soon
be leaving me

What do you want?

I got a new song
I want to pitch to George.

Ugh.

All about a cheatin' wife

who passed around
nudie pictures of herself.

You think something
like that'd be a hit?

No.

Don, I gave you a house,
this godforsaken car.

I gave you everything

that was sitting
in the bank account.

I got nothing left
to give you.

You got you.

Donna and I tried to play
some of our bookings,

but nobody wants our act
without you.

No.

I can't.

George sees those
pictures, he'll leave you.

Then if the world sees,

I can't even imagine
what that would do

to your career.

The state might even
declare you

an unfit parent...

again.

But each...

You've had your shortcomings, but...

...I've never known you
to be a bad man.

And I never knew you
to be a lying whore.

But fair is fair.

You can keep those,
by the way.

Those is just copies.

Now get out of my car.

You've got
a little scar back here.

I never noticed it before.

Mm.

There's stuff about me,
if you knew,

you'd stop loving me.

Never.

Mm-hmm.
- Mm-mm.

Let's get away from here.

Make a fresh start
and go someplace

where I can be Glenn
and you can be Virginia.

Yeah.

Except we're
George and Tammy now.

Mm.

This is how you want it?

Yeah.

It's a much better deal
for me than it is for you.

I don't see
why that would hurt your heart.

You're making a mistake.

I'll see you around.

See you around.

Don't tell George nothing.

Mm-mm.

He'll kill Don.

Then you'll be not married
to a jailbird

and not divorced
from a dead guy.

Yeah, and I'll be alone.

Well, what are we
talking about here, honey?

A couple of nudies?

Even I have those.

But you're not Tammy Wynette.

I'm sorry.

No, sugar,
it's all right.

Well, I wanted to go back
for them, but...

you know, George told me
just to forget everything.

I can have Richey
talk to his brother, Paul.

Oh, yeah?
- You didn't hear it from me,

but he can be
real intimidating.

It's a comfort.

Shh, shh.

What's going on in here?
- Hey, baby.

Well, is it done?

I'm all yours.

And we don't believe you

Our first time.

Take me

Take me
to your darkest room

Close every window

And bolt every door

The very first moment

I heard your voice

I'd be in darkness no more

Take me

To your most barren desert

A thousand miles

From the nearest sea

The very moment

I saw your smile

It would be
like heaven to me

There's not any mountain

Too rugged to climb

No desert

Too barren to cross

Darlin'

If you would
just show a sign

Of love

I could bear any loss

Take me to Siberia

And the coldest weather

Of the wintertime

And it would be

Just like spring
in California

As long as I knew
you were mine

Yes, it would be

Just like spring
in California

As long as I knew

You were mine

Take me

Take me

Honey,
I'm worried about Don.

He's holding up the divorce.

Well, let the lawyer handle it.

Right?
- Yeah, but he's angry,

and I'm afraid
of what he might do.

I was thinking
that if we recorded

a few of his songs
for our album,

then maybe he'd let go
of some of his bitterness.

No.

Here, you come with me.

We give him a couple of hits,

that's real money
in his pocket.

Yeah.
- Imagine the publicity.

George and Tammy
singin' a love song

written by Tammy's ex.

I mean, could it be
any more country?

He's a man
of no consequence, babe.

All right.
- What?

Wait for it.
-

Come on.
- What?

What?
- All right.

Slow down, babe.

Oh, George.

There she is.

Welcome home, sugar.

No.

You bought this?
- Yeah.

Yeah, a fresh start.

Well, you did this
without talking to me?

That town's gonna kill us.

We need somewhere to get away.

I-I just wanted
to surprise you.

Only reason
you wanted to surprise me

is 'cause
you didn't want to know

what I'd have to say about it.

You gotta love this.
You got to.

Baby,
I got lots of have-tos.

Moving to a rundown heap
in the middle of nowhere

isn't one of them.

Hey!

I can make this as nice

as any mansion
in Belle Meade for you.

I finally got
where I want to be.

I'm not moving.

We'll talk about this at home.

We are home.

Honey, this place
is all I got left.

dramatic music

What?

I-I gave up the other house.

I gave it to Pappy

so I could come over to Epic
and sing with you.

The house,
what's left of my publishing--

I gave up everything.

Hell, I gave up Pappy, too,
to be with you.

I'm sorry, baby.

We're broke.

We're free.
- No.

We're broke.
- Hey.

The only thing easier
than losing money is making it.

Old Possum's at it again.

What's so funny over there?

What are you laughing about?
- It's all right, honey.

What's he laughing about?
- Honey, it's all right.

Just calm down.
It's fun.

Big roll coming
from George Jones.

What the hell is that?

What am I supposed to do
with that?

There's no justice in that,
my friend.

Now, don't you
get aggravated.

Look at that there.

Are you kidding me?
- No.

Goodbye, George.
- Don't get aggravated.

Are you kidding me?
- Baby, just calm down.

Come on,
it's my turn.

No.
What are you doing?

Oh, no, baby.

Oh, yeah!
- Oh, no!

I'm sorry, I had to do it.
- No way. That's...

That's fucking ridiculous.
- Oh! whoa!

Jesus fucking Christ, man.

It's just a stupid game.
- George...

Stupid!
- Whoa, whoa.

That's a stupid game.
- Hey, come on, man.

What the fuck's your problem?

God damn.

Asshole.

Well, not really.
-

You boys all right?
- Yeah, we're fine.

Ah, hold him, Riddle.

I got him.

Okay.

You boys have a good night.

You know,
he might wake up.

No,
George ain't gonna wake up.

See you tomorrow.
- All right.

somber music

Come on, baby.

I told you,
violence is no good.

Then why does he use it?

So full of anger.
So full of anger.

That boy was hungry.

Calm down.

Are you responsible
to everybody?

You can't be the conscience
of the whole world.

You're a clever man
and an able man.

You might even be
an important man--

have money and property,
be respected.

Well, you told me
that's what you wanted.

Now do you want it
or don't you?

That boy was hungry.

Where you going, Hiawatha?

I'm not going anywhere, George.

You're leaving.

Mm-mm.
- Yeah.

No, I'm not leaving.

You're out the door.

I'm at the balcony, baby.

You know, you don't
have to come with me.

You can run away.

Oh, well,
I'll shut the door.

Fine.

I'm not runnin'.

Tammy Wynette,
I set thee free.

Sound like a preacher.

Drunk as one too.

I don't--

Shit.

If you're not gonna go...

What are you doing?

I'm gonna...
- Honey.

I'm gonna...
- Come on, baby.

Go.

I'm gonna go.

Why don't you just
get back in bed, okay?

No.

God damn it!
- George.

Son of a bitch!

George.
- Nobody'll tell me nothing.

All right?

Nobody tells me nothing.

Look at you.
You can't go out like this.

Get away from me!
-

God damn it!

Get the fuck off me!

Get--

Get back here,
Virginia Pugh.

Baby, you okay?

Whoever this is
should know better

than to bother me
in my bunker.

You have
a collect call from...

Come get me.

Do you accept the charges?

Yeah, yeah.

Wynette, where are you?

I've been trying
to reach you all day.

We're in West Concord,
I think.

Hey, you all right?

Yeah.

Well, listen,
I got some good news for you.

Paul Richey came by.

It turns out
you didn't wait long enough

after your divorce from Euple
was final to marry Don.

You were supposed
to wait a year.

You only waited ten months,
you minx.

You were never married
to Don Chapel.

Looks like God is blessing
your Mexican marriage,

Mrs. Jones.

emotional music

Where you been?

Ah, shit.

Slept on my damn hand funny.

Think I might have broke it.

You playing dumb,

or you just
really don't recall?

Last night,
I saw the devil.

That what you did?
- Yeah.

All right.

You know,
you didn't have to come back.

It made me too sad...

...thinking about you
in here hurtin'.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I love you.
It won't happen again.

You know, the last time
I tried to leave a man...

...my mama took my kids.

She put me in a hospital,

and they shocked me so bad, I...

...forgot my own name.

I was four months pregnant
with Tina,

so she came early 'cause of it
and almost died.

But what got me out was you.

I followed your voice
from my mama's record player...

...to the radio in my car.

I followed your voice
all the way to Nashville.

George Jones saved me.

Well, do you love
George Jones or Glenn?

I'm just a man.

I see that.

But if you stay with me,

I'll--I'll quit drinking.

I will.

Your love can do that.

What you thinkin' of, hmm?

Tell me.

gentle twangy music

If you'll stand by me

I'll stand by you,
my darlin'

We'll face
the world together

It's eternity

Wh...

Everything all right
in there?

Sorry, Billy,
that was unprofessional of me.

Let's take it from the top.

Can I talk to you?
Yeah?

Everybody take five.

He'll have good times

And you'll have bad times

When he does things
that you don't understand

Can we switch
the order of this

so it goes...
You'll have bad times

Comes first?
'Cause it's her story.

Even though he's hard

To understand

And if you love him

Oh, be proud of

Why does she forgive him,
though?

'Cause that's what you do.

Yeah, but why?

Hey, now, George,
what are you...

Sometimes it's hard

To be a woman

Giving all your love

To just one man

You'll have bad times

And he'll have good times

Doing things
that you don't

Understand

But if you love him,
you'll

Even though he's hard

To understand

And if you love him

Oh, be proud of him

'Cause after all

He's just a man

Stand by your man

And show the world
you love him

Keep giving

All the love you can

Stand by your man

Stand by your man

And show the world
you love him

Keep giving
all the love

You can

Stand by

Your man

Go on, bring them back in.
