Plot:
Set in the post WWII south, returning soldiers Jamie (Garrett Hedlund) and Ronsel (Jason Mitchell) forge a friendship while their parents both face hardships farming.

Review:
Rating: [Watch it] / It depends / Skip it
  • This draws a line from discrimination in the past to discrimination today. It weaves a story of two families struggling to survive as farmers. Their lives are full of the typical drama hard up families have, but being the deep South racism is prevalent. Two soldiers who fought in the war are treated very differently based just on skin color. The culminating scene is tough to watch. It's a well directed and acted movie with great cinematography, though the first few scenes can be disorienting.
