  Joan Tewkesbury’nin senaryosu, geri planda, asıl konuyla bağlantı kurmak derdinde olmadan politik bir hikâye atıveriyor ortaya, böylece Vietnam Savaşı’nda atılan yanlış adımların ve yozlaşmış Nixon hükümetinin gölgesindeki Amerika’nın kendisini yeniden keşfettiği süreçteki tekinsiz atmosferi solumamızı sağlıyor. Film, politik mevzunun gelişimi içinde, “Country Müziği ve Western” manzarasına en iyi bakışı sunuyor ve 1970’lerin, Amerika metaforunu bitirip tüketen son filmi olduğunu kanıtlıyor. Yayılıp giden, dağınık, benzersiz bir tarzda çekilen, öyküselliği olmayan film, müzisyenler, menejerler, politikacılar, reklamcılar ve müzikseverlerden oluşan 24 karakterin, Nashville’deki koşuşturmacalı beş gün boyunca yapıp ettiklerini enfes bir tarzda gözlüyor.

  Filmed in the coal country of West Virginia, "Matewan" celebrates labor organizing in the context of a 1920s work stoppage. Union organizer, Joe Kenehan, a scab named "Few Clothes" Johnson and a sympathetic mayor and police chief heroically fight the power represented by a coal company and Matewan's vested interests so that justice and workers' rights need not take a back seat to squalid working conditions, exploitation and the bottom line.

  Ab Snopes (Tommy Lee Jones) is a Southern tenant farmer whose unrelenting and violent nature proves to be his undoing in William Faulkner's Barn Burning. Snopes sets his employer's barn on fire when he thinks he's been treated unfairly. His son, Sarty, is horrified. Snopes escapes justice for lack of proof, but he and his family are told to move on. No sooner do they move than Snopes is offended by his new rich employer. Torn between trying to win his father's acceptance and his aversion to what his father will do, Sarty must make a decision and act quickly. Adapted by Academy Award winning screenwriter Horton Foote, Faulkner's complex world of class divisions and hostile family relationships comes to life through a boy's attempt to liberate himself from hatred and poverty.
