Sweet Dreams is a 1985 American biographical drama film directed by Karel Reisz and written by Robert Getchell. The film stars Jessica Lange as country music singer Patsy Cline and Ed Harris as her husband, Charlie Dick, with supporting roles by Ann Wedgeworth, David Clennon, James Staley, Gary Basaraba, John Goodman, and P. J. Soles. The narrative chronicles Cline's rise to fame in the late 1950s, her turbulent marriage, and her death in a 1963 plane crash. For all musical sequences, Lange lip-synced to Cline’s original vocal recordings. The film’s official soundtrack, featuring Cline’s songs, was released in September 1985.
