Dolly stars as Ruby Diamond in the CBS made-for-television film, “Unlikely Angel”
Dolly starred in “Unlikely Angel,” a made-for-television film, as Ruby Diamond, a selfish country singer who is granted a second chance at salvation by St. Peter (Roddy McDowall) after she dies in a car accident. If Ruby is able to help reunite and heal a suburban family suffering after the passage of their mother (by midnight on Christmas Eve) she will be given her wings. If she fails to reunite the family, Ruby would head for far smokier shores.
Dolly was also an executive producer for the project and provided some original songs (“Wat’cha Tryin’na Do” and “Unlikely Angel”). “Unlikely Angel” premiered on CBS on Dec. 17, 1996.
