  "account": "Disney is set to bring back Dolly Parton to our screens for a week, as part of a heartwarming initiative to honor the country superstar's legacy. The classic 1980 comedy film 9 To 5, starring Parton alongside Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin, will be remastered and re-released in theaters from October 9 to 15. The primary goal of this nostalgic event is to raise funds for The Dollywood Foundation, specifically for its flagship program, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library.\n\nTickets for the limited-time screening are now available at participating cinemas across the United States. The decision to bring Parton back to the big screen comes on September 25th, which Disney has dubbed \"Give Like Dolly Day.\" This day was chosen to pay tribute to Parton's well-known philanthropy and the foundation she established in 1995. This charity, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, has since distributed over 300 million free books to children in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., Australia, and the Republic of Ireland.\n\nThe news of this special event is sure to bring a smile to many faces, as we collectively mourn the loss of the iconic singer. While we may not have the opportunity to enjoy Parton's vibrant presence in person, watching 9 To 5 on the silver screen might just provide a much-needed dose of laughter and warmth. So grab some popcorn, a box of Raisinets, and maybe a giant cup of Sprite, lemonade, and Hawaiian Punch – and get ready to be transported back to a time when Dolly Parton reigned supreme.",
