The Free State Of Jones (2016) Matthew McConaughey

I thought this was very good. The movie meanders a bit but it's a very interesting story.

Description from IMDB: Set during the Civil War, Free State of Jones tells the story of defiant Southern farmer, Newt Knight, and his extraordinary armed rebellion against the Confederacy. Banding together with other small farmers and local slaves, Knight launched an uprising that led Jones County, Mississippi to secede from the Confederacy, creating a Free State of Jones. Knight continued his struggle into Reconstruction, distinguishing him as a compelling, if controversial, figure of defiance long beyond the War.

Crap. Waste of time. If I was a shark I'd be offended by how I was portrayed!!

Agreed. Even gratuitous footage of Blake Lively in a bikini couldn't save this one....yawn...

Okay - so it was not the greatest (I guess I just like Blake Lively after seeing her in The Age of Adeline)

So - huh! I just found out she is with Ryan Reynolds? :umm::tounge: (from Deadpool)

I liker her too..........:dribble:

I figure a child produced by Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively would almost be too beautiful for human eyes to gaze upon and would probably be named either Adonis or Aphrodite.....;;D

Good Sunday evening. (Evening?! Oh, yeah. We lost an hour.)

Uncle John

In this tale of small town intrigue, an urbanite returns to his quiet hometown on an impromptu trip as his Uncle, widely respected in town, struggles to evade suspicion of a murder.

I enjoyed this movie very much. John Ashton (Beverly Hills Cop) is wonderful. I strongly recommend this movie.




Available on Hulu right now.

Wow, just watched the trailer. I can't wait to watch it. I don't have Hulu (no 11/22/63 for me) but will seek it out elsewhere. I like these niche movies about modern small town life that are neither sentimental nor an indictment on small towns (aka small-mindedness) themselves. I will recommend a few with similar themes:

Mud (Matthew McConnaughey)
June Bug (Amy Adams)
Shotgun Stories (Michael Shannon)

I liked these very much.
