I like Woody Guthrie, I've read the book it's based on, and I've not seen it.

Have you seen this movie before?:
No.

Would you recommend this film? Why or why not?:
Yes. Adapting Guthrie's autobiography, it gives you an incredibly shot view of he Dust Bowl, the Great Depression, and the  struggles of American workers as Woody's career begins.

Which character were you most able to identify with or connect with? In what way?:
David Carradine as Woody Guthrie, in his not wanting to be pushed into non-union or even non-worker songs in his shows.

Best line or memorable quote:
Heavy Chandler: I don't know if you knew it or not, but you're looking at an insane man.

Were you surprised by the ending? What would you do differently?:
No. I wouldn't do anything differently.

Is the composer/musician/band/group featured in the film one you regularly listen to?:
Yes, I listen to Woody Guthrie quite often.

What new information did you learn?:
None, I'd already read the book that the film is based on.

Anything else you'd like to add?:
-

The way people talk about certain KINDS of characters in fiction can tell you something about that person. Frex, someone tried to tell me Spirk was bestiality because "Spock isn't a person because he's not human, and only humans can be people," even in stories with Elves & such.

It's October tomorrow, and my 31 Days Of Hallowe'en plan was going to be "the Hammer Draculas and then anything else" Incredibly sensibly, this has become "watch all 50 of Hammer's horror films in chronological order" It'll be fine!
