Finding Normal
Sometimes, the characters of country movies ... don't always expect to find themselves in the country in the first place. For Dr. Lisa Leland, that sounds just about right.
The only thing standing between Dr. Lisa Leland, played by Candace Cameron Bure, and her dream wedding in the Hamptons is a 2,600-mile drive from Los Angeles to Long Island. But a run-in with the law in the country town of Normal, Louisiana leaves Lisa with a choice: jail or community service. Sentenced to three days as the town's doctor, Lisa soon finds her world turned upside-down by a man and discovers a lot more to the little town of Normal.

The Ride
A good ol' country movies list wouldn't be complete without a lil' bull ridin'! That's why we had to include "The Ride," a country movie about a has-been cowboy who is given a second chance at the hands of an unexpected teacher.
Smokey Banks used to be one of the greatest bull riders in rodeo. Through a strange and sudden series of events, he is given an option: go to jail, or be a cowboy teacher at a Boy's Ranch. Saddled with a dozen young boys untamed as any bull he ever faced, his mission may seem simple but turns out to be an even wilder ride than he thought. Very reluctantly, Smokey agrees, not realizing that Danny will be far more of a teacher to him than he ever dreamed.
