1996 at the Movies: SLING BLADE

On November 27, 1996 Dwight Yoakam taught us about parenting.

2 years ago

Twenty-five years of waking up to the roommate from the garage holding a hammer over your bed.

In what is our most important episode of 1996 we discuss the many merits of Billy Bob Thornton's SLING BLADE:

  • Was John Ritter's version of the hight and tight a bold move in mid 90s Arkansas?
  • Dwight Yoakam's drunk boyfriend is a man of many moods when imbibing. He contains multitudes.
  • How many weeks old are the underwear that Robert Duvall wears in his silent confrontation from his command post of the recliner?

It is most assuredly our greatest episode ever. Enjoy!
