Review of Some Folks Call It a Sling Blade (1994) by Conner R — 03 Jan 2011
It's unfair to really rate this as a movie since it's really just an extremely well made screen test. Billy Bob Thorton gave us a glimpse of the Karl that he would become and that alone is worthy of five stars.
This reminds me a lot of the documentary "Titticut Follies", what with the chaotic background and incompetent nature of the institution. The monologue given in this is probably one of the all time greatest, it is method acting to the extreme.
