The name of the 1980, motion picture about Loretta Lynn is titled, "Coal Miner's Daughter." The movie was a big hit, and earned 7 Oscar nominations (including "Best Picture").

Sissy Spacek was the only one to take an Oscar home for the movie, by winning the "Best Actress of the Year Academy Award."

The movie title is the same as Loretta Lynn's autobiography, "Coal Miner's Daughter," which was released in 1976, and hit #1 on the New York Times Best Seller's List.
