Ah yes. Good flick. Must get that one, didn't realize it was on DVD now.

ETA, this flicks show Sid Hatfield loading rounds, and then using them on some folks.

Slow pacing, but it's a drama, not an action flick.

John Sayles makes movies the way they're supposed to be made: the way HE WANTS THEM, with no focus groups, audience polls or studio interference. He gets financing on his own, makes his film THEN finds someone willing to distribute it without putting their own two worthless cents in. The man pretty much defines the term "artistic integrity."

John Sayles makes some pretty cool movies. Its cool to see relatively big name actors in small flicks.

I need to watch that. My great-grandfather worked the mines in southern WV.
