“I mean itu0026#39;s a little slow, you can pause this and have dinner, come back and finish it up, but I donu0026#39;t think itu0026#39;s a bad thing.nYou donu0026#39;t rush through a beautiful poem and then toss it aside!nAnd this is a beautiful film. The songs are very well crafted and Ben Dickey and Alia Shawkat give compelling performances.nHawke is an adept film maker, his use of imagery was interesting and I felt he captured the laconic atmosphere of singer songwriter movement in the south during the seventies and eighties.nI bet Hawke could make a decent western, no problem.nIf you have the time to invest and a interest in music this movie will reward you.”
