Insulting!
As a Southerner this movie was insulting! Some actors/actresses can pull off a southern accent. These actors (especially the son) failed terribly. They butchered all attempts.
Typical stereotyping of the South that one finds in low budget films, or films made by Hollywood which has no clue about the true South, or failed to do research.
Historically inaccurate. Everything from dates to geographic locations.
Typical story of rich white descendants from rich white slave owners. Evil, controlling individuals who are out to control the world.
Movies like this bother me greatly as people who have never visited the South, or have not educated themselves believe that movies like this are as factual as a History Channel documentary. It leads people to think this is how we are "down here". Sad conclusion.
Do I have anything good to say? Well... the photography was very good, sorry that this excellent talent was wasted on this film.
Music was good as well.
The plot (for a fiction novel) had great possibilities... unfortunately the directors fell asleep at the wheel in bringing this "plot" to the surface.
Bottom line... save your time and money.
