ethereal grace

"In Dallas for the premier of '9 to 5,' I had an uncanny experience, and on the plane home to Chicago I confessed it to Siskel: I had been granted a private half hour with Dolly Parton, and as we spoke I was filled with a strange ethereal grace. This was not spiritual, nor was it sexual. It was healing and comforting. Gene listened and said, "Roger, I felt the exact same thing during my interview with her." We looked at each other. What did this mean? Neither of us ever felt that feeling again. From time to time we would refer to it in wonder." — Roger Ebert, Life Itself
