She got zero $ from the movie, is my understanding. She lived a full life.
idk but one would think there would have to be some in there for her......according to this theres $52 million to spread out to somebody...

Loretta Lynn: The Coal Miner’s Daughter The film, “Coal Miner’s Daughter,” which was based on her autobiography of the same name, grossed $67 million against a $15 million budget according to Hollywood Reporter.

About her making zero $ from the movie, I can’t find a source anywhere. I did some sleuthing and if this story were true you’d expect that something would have popped up by now. No matter, she was worth over $50 million from what I did find.

It’s interesting to compare Loretta with her contemporary, Tammy Wynette. Both great country singers. Tammy sang “stand by your man” but divorced two husbands and had two other annulments, while Loretta sang more liberated songs but remained married to her husband (when she had reason not to).
