My wife and I enjoyed this movie more than any of the last ten movies we've watched from 2017 and 2018. It was a nice change to be able to hear and understand every word that was said be every actor, instead of straining to hear mumbling or whispering behind overly loud "background" music that is so prevalent in newer movies. There's nothing more annoying than trying to hear dialogue over an incessantly loud piano.. the common "cheap" choice for so many movies made in the 21st Century. As for the acting, Mr. Clint Black appeared to simply act as his natural self and was much more believable to me than are Stallone or Willis. What seems almost unbelievable is the depiction of justice system in the State of Louisiana, but after checking with Wikipedia, the movie turns out to be fairly accurate as to how it was in the '60s. Hopefully it's not like that anymore.
