hat it . if you believe that everyone in the south be dumb and morally bankrupt and stupid and violent and a religious nut and or a child molester and then this film may be for you . everyone be poor and seemingly ignorant . in one scene and two old men be talk in a general store and one mention that he have molest a set of sister before they could tie their shoe . the man seem proud of his action and and the other man clearly take it a a normal part of life . very nice . a teenage girl walk the back road look for her sister and no one offer to help her despite an obvious limp and lack of food or water ( no backpack and etc . ) . strathairn character be not only thoroughly disgust and slimy and but he be show to be a religious believer who ( typical for hollywood ) reflect the vile nature of christian . a scene in the movie be highly reminiscent of the end of cape fear ( the one with deniro ) bible verse be spout by the bad guy . i be from the great northwest and but find this film offensive because of the wonderful people i know who be from nc and wv and al and m and ky and tn and etc .
