Gianluca, it's funny you should mention "Nashville Rebel" - I just watched it over the weekend for the first time - I had bought it several months ago and was nursing a bad cold over the weekend, so I decided to watch it. I noticed the mentions of Jim just as you stated. It is an entertaining movie to those of us who remember and enjoy the "old" country music of that era. I especially enjoyed seeing "Cousin Jody" both in-character and out-of-character.
Thanks,
Frank
