I wonder what the real Jesco thinks


i wonder what the real Jesco thinks of this movie. I don't want to spoil anything so i'll just say alot of what happens in this movie is fictitious to say the least. i still loved it but i'd like to hear his opinion. also does anyone know where i can find the wild and wonderful whites of west virginia online? i've been looking forward to that documentary for a long time

My only problem with this otherwise great film is that they didn't change Jesco's name, considering how much of it is made up.

The real Jesco met Hogg who plays him and it didn't seem as if Jesco was upset about how Hogg portrayed him.
