"Bright Star"

Steve Martin and Edie Brickell adapted their celebrated 2013 bluegrass album Love Has Come For You into an Appalachian musical tapestry. Bright Star is set in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, where a young World War II veteran has returned home to forge a career in journalism; his editor, meanwhile, must navigate her own challenging backstory involving a stolen child, as Martin and Brickell’s emotionally rich narrative shifts between timelines. $65–$100
