Saw on some talk show one night that when filming the movie Dan Tyminski went home and told his wife that she'd be hearing his voice but see George Clooney. She responded by saying " oh that's ok I do that every night in bed" ! I went to a " Down from the Mountain Tour " concert that made the rounds after the movie was out. Everyone who had songs in the movie was on that tour and even some who didn't !! I pissed my pants laughing when Norman Blake came out onstage in bib overalls and white t-shirt and nobody knew who he was or anything about him. their jaws dropped when he broke in to " Under the Double Eagle " playing so effortlessly!!! That friggan concert cost me $300 as my boys [ early teens ] asked if I'd buy them tickets so I told them I'd buy tickets for whoever came over and raked the pine cones and leaves in my backyard.[ thinking the tickets would be like $10-15 ] They invited 3 of their friends over so when I went to get the tickets the clerk told me $300 for 6 tickets !!! My boys grew up listening to that music and knew of all the performers way ahead of time. But it was so awesome to see Patty Loveless, Ricky Scaggs, Ralph Stanley, Norman Blake, The Whites, The Cox Family, Alison Krause, Emmylou Harris, and others all in one show!!

Clooney is a leftist retard. But it's great movie. View Quote Still like the movie and would watch it again (I've seen it a few times) but it will never be as good knowing what I know now. |

I believe that you could converse for a whole day just using quotes from that movie.
Lots of respectable people have been hit by trains, Judge Hobbie over in Cookville was hit by a train. |

We watched that on senior day in my high school. I really enjoyed it.

Arf has the strangest timing. We just put the dvd in last night.
Big Dan is an great part. I also love that no-one can pronounce “accompaniment”. |

I appreciate the cessation of conversation during gustation. There are those that attempt both at the same time. I find it coarse and vulgar.

My mom was in her 90's and lived through those hard times and while she never said she had a favorite movie she ask to watch this one several times while she visited my house.
She passed in 2015 and I had the soundtrack played at her service. |

Clooney is a leftist retard. But it's great movie. View Quote Brolin bitch-slaps Clooney for talking commie shit... The film seems light-hearted and simple (awesome cameos), but with some reflection it is a pretty interesting take of post-WWII Hollywood in the early Cold War, complete with communist subversion. Keep Joe McCarthy, the House Un-American Activities Committee, and the Blacklist in the back of your mind as you are watching it. Clooney meets the commies... You got most of it, man... |

Quoted: That whole opening scene was filmed about 10min from my house. I used to farm hand just down the road from there, I know the guy who owns/farms it well. The funniest part about that movie is how it's still like that around here, not much has changed in a hundred years. View Quote I remarked to a friend that the only change I could see in Forest since 1980 was a remodeling of the McDonalds. He tells me that the people of that area absolutely resist and reject change. It was damn nice being back down there. I did visit a friend down in Magee a few years ago, and we did go to that waterpark there in D'Lo a time or two. In the 70s and 80s, of course, there was nothing called a "waterpark" in Mississippi. D'Lo was just a name you saw on a highway sign along with Sanitorium, or whatever else. Me and my friend pretty much got told to leave Sanitorium. She was taking photos of the copper in the roof of one of those buildings. That whole place is for folks who ain't right in the head, as I'm sure you know. |

. What are you doing out in the middle of nowhere? Well, I had to be up at that there crossroads last midnight, to sell my soul to the devil. Well, ain't it a small world, spiritually speaking. Pete and Delmar just been baptized and saved. I guess I'm the only one that remains unaffiliated.

Stephen Root nails every role I've ever seent him in. I'd rank him right up there with Gary Oldman, and a couple others, for being such a great actor, you have to check IMDB to see if that's actually him. As opposed to over rated ginks like DeNiro that just plays the exact same guy in every single movie they've ever been in, to the point you might as well just name the character Robert DeNiro.

DeNiro types sell tix, but they ain't exactly acting. Everyone knows how to be themselves.

Quoted: I want to study his physical technique, so I can pretend to be a (gregarious) blind man some time. View Quote |

The Greek word for actor, transliterated, is Hypocritos. It's the root of the English word hypocrite, and it's the skill of the con man and great actors and politicians throughout history. Good liars aren't consciously lying with awareness when in character. You'd see through that. They are pretending so well, that at the time, they actually believe it themselves.

Quoted:
The secret to great acting is the skill of Let's Pretend. Pretend so well, you actually believe it yourself. Pretend you're blind, so well that you actually believe you're blind while the camera is rolling. If you can do that, the audience will believe you're blind, because you believe it.

Quoted: I want to study his physical technique, so I can pretend to be a (gregarious) blind man some time. And he physically underscores the inability to perceive barriers by treating the glass (with the clipboard) and the wall (with his cane) roughly. It's genius. |
