MOVIE OF THE WEEK: Sling Blade


I didn't see anything to rave about this week, so here are a few thoughts on a film I saw some time ago. "Sling Blade" is slow but thought-provoking film by actor-director-writer Billy Bob Thornton. Despite testing my patience at times, it’s still a fascinating film that poses some subtle questions about morality and intolerance. Thornton is simply masterful in the lead role.
