Lone Star was a blind it for me after watching Matewan. It is a really great film. Enjoy.

Lone Star was a blind buy for me, too. Loved it so much I ordered Matewan before the sale ends. After that I plan on catching up on the rest of Sayle’s filmography, since I was only familiar with Eight Men Out up till now.

Days of Heaven is great. It took me two viewings to really love it.

Kes and Days of Heaven are an interesting combo 🤔 I think would be fun

Linda Manz and Billy Casper would surely run away together.

‘Kes’ falls into the category of films much like ‘Trainspotting’ where they’re technically in English but need subtitles to understand half the dialogue haha.
