Country songs and country singers are always popping up in films. Sometimes it’s in movies like Country Strong where Gwyneth Paltrow sings three songs and stars as country music superstar Kelly Canter or Pure Country when George Strait plays singer Wyatt "Dusty" Chandler, and sometimes a country song just provides the perfect accompaniment to a scene in a film like Faith Hill’s ‘Last Kiss’ does in Practical Magic.
Whatever sort of movie it is, we’re always happy to hear a country song when it comes on.
With the release of the 29-track country soundtrack to Twisters: The Movie, we take a look back at all the best country songs that have featured in movie soundtracks over the years.
Lights, camera, country music!
