.
Involved in a high speed chase, Joe (Billy Bob Thornton) loses control of his car and wrecks. In the process, his young son is killed and his wife Chrystal (Lisa Blount) is permanently disabled.
After serving 20 years in prison, Joe returns to the Ozarks to try to make amends with Chrystal.
Also appearing are Grace Zabriskie as Chrystal's mother Gladys; Kathryn Howell as Miss Mabel the spiritualist; Walt Goggins as Joe's slimy cousin Larry; Harry Lennix and Johnny Galecki as Kalid and Barry who came from Chicago to record the regional music; Colin Fickes and Max Kasch as Hog and Shorty, a couple of teenagers; James Intveld as Charlie the cop; Harry Dean Stanton as Pa Da; and Ray McKinnon (who also wrote and directed) as Snake who carries an old vendetta against Joe.
Some fine bluegrass pickin' and singin'.
Run time: 1 hour, 46 minutes
Rated R for sexuality, nudity, drug content, violence and language.
My personal rating: B-
