this movie felt too natural to be a film . duvall give one of the fine performance i have ever see . his insight into this preacher soul be amazing and inspire . this be americana encapsulate for all to view . hollywood would have make it big than life and i like this because it be as small a life . life be full of sordid detail and imperfection . duvall choose to portray the good with the bad and and enable movie goer to experience what come from powerful story portray by a wonderful supporting cast . i find john beasley performance the strong i have see from a support character and possibly ever . if only hollywood and the movie mogul could make more human story like this and life would be too sweet . while nothing blow up and this movie have action and power in it . the story lead in way i never expect to be lead . in the time of high predictability in movie and this one have small surprise and some good and some bad all very real . kudos to duvall for go that extra mile on his one way trip .
