Take Me Home: The John Denver Story (2000)
A small-screen adaptation of Denver’s biography focuses on how Denver seemingly lived for one thing only: the approval of his Air Force pilot father. Even if this telepic had stuck to the facts, it could have created a far warmer portrait of a man whose simple and uplifting songs became his passport to the world.
