    After catching his mother and her boyfriend in flagrante delicto and dispatching both of them with a farm implement known as a sling blade, a simpleminded 11-year-old boy is sent to a mental hospital where he spends the next 25 years. Upon his release, the emotionally and mentally stunted man-child returns to his Arkansas hometown and takes a job in a local garage, only to have the past inexorably repeat itself. An indie-film triumph, adapted by star-writer-director Thornton from his 1993 short, Some Folks Call It a Sling Blade. Academy Award Nominations: 2, including Best Actor--Billy Bob Thornton. Academy Awards: Best Adapted Screenplay.

Entertaiment Forever At My Doorstep

islandsage from Lo Angeles, CA, Jan 31, 2008

DVD is sometimes difficult to find in stock elsewhere, but not at Overstock! This is a great movie, great cast, and I highly recommend it to any adult who loves cinema. Overstock shipped it pronto; three days later it was, in my PO Box. Love that Overstock! Fun to shop, spend less, enjoy more!

Excellent!!

trbrocks1 from Phoenix, AZ, Jan 27, 2008

A great movie. One of my favorites. Not appropriate for kids because of violence and language. Adult comprehension necessary.

Slingblade

Fantastic movie. Billy Bob Thorton is excellent in this. It's sad, but very good. My son loves to imitate the man. I would recommend it.
