Released in 1992, Pure Country marks George Strait’s first foray into acting in films. In the movie, Strait plays Wyatt “Dusty” Chandler, a country music singer trying to make a living in the music world. Despite Strait providing the film with star power, the movie didn’t go over well with audiences and critics.
