''Sweet Dreams'' was named for one of the final songs Cline recorded in her lifetime. The song was written by Don Gibson, who had one of several hit recordings of the song; Faron Young had the first hit version in 1956 and Gibson reached the top 10 in 1960, before Cline had a posthumous hit with what critics called one of her best performances. Emmylou Harris had the biggest hit version from a chart perspective, with a live recording from one of her concerts in 1976.

!!Tropes seen in ''Sweet Dreams''
* {{Biopic}}: About one of country music's most famous, talented and influential female vocalists, whose legacy continues some 60 years after her passing.
* BringMyBrownPants: In the climatic scene, when Randy Hughes is able to restart the plane and (temporarily) averting disaster, the three passengers and Cline all joke how they peed their pants. That would soon be the least of their concerns ...
* DomesticAbuse: While dramatized and at times romanticized, the relationship between Patsy and husband Charlie was depicted as it was in real life: romantic but tempestuous. Frequently, Charlie (and at times, Patsy as well) got drunk and got into big fights that got physical.
* HopeSpot: In the flight scene where the plane stalls, Randy is finally able to get the plane re-started and everyone cheers. The celebration would be short-lived ... .
* JustPlaneWrong: Critics of ''Sweet Dreams'' point at a number of inaccuracies in the film, most notably the plane crash at the end of the film. In the movie, Hughes – after restarting the plane's engine, which had mechanical issues – attempts to steer the plane but it crashes into the side of a mountain, exploding on impact. In real life, the plane crahsed into a forest, hitting trees that ripped the plane apart on its way down, and that heavy fog limited Hughes' ability to avoid a crash.
