love story

“What a beautiful love story coming to its worldly conclusion,” said one comment posted Thursday by a fan whose private Instagram account said her name is Sarah Lewis.

“And the way that everything was on the move and quick and alarms would be blaring. It was so exciting and, in the middle of it, there were love stories. It wasn’t just one thing.”

Their love story blossomed through Dean's two-year military service during the Vietnam War and Parton's transformation into one of the greatest living country music legends ever.

Many in Hollywood’s old guard were famously not on board with the gay love story at the center of “Brokeback Mountain,” with two voters — Ernest Borgnine and Tony Curtis — publicly voicing their distaste.

Like much of the country, she was hooked on the Luke and Laura love story.
