    I love Billy Bob, and that kid actor , I should remember his name, he is also so good in everything he does.

    I really thought this was a sad movie, very touching. I cried over several parts of it. Is there a book of this movie? I love to read the books after I see a movie to get more details. Since Billy Bob wrote and directed it, I bet there is not a book. I will check it out when I go to the book store.

    This movie just broke my heart really, the little boy reminds me of my little boy, my son is a sensitive, country talking sweetheart. In the movie the little boy says that he is tired,and that a kid should not be so tired of things. This reminded me of alot of things my son has said to me, when he was so afraid . My son went thru alot of pain and suffering to survive when he was born and he still worries too much for a kid his age.

    I guess that is why some movies may effect others in different ways. If you can see someone you love, reflected in a character, it touches your heart.

    hey mac, why not change your name to cleuelessmac. I called it as i saw it. Billy bob did not do anything any other actor could have done. This movie was way too long and drawn out.

    Mushy,

    I will not change my name to that do to the regrettable spelling! However I will change it to Clueless Mac. Now go forth and speak of Billy Bob no more!

    Jed,

    I don't know if you watched Monsters Ball on the big screen, VCR or DVD. However, if it was on DVD you have to watch the special features where he does one of his scenes as Carl(Slingblade). It had me struggling very hard not to herniate myself!!!

    Great film!

    Musky,

    If I were you I would point out the way I spelled "due" in my post above and beat me repeatedly over the head with it untill I said "I,m sorry." I no longer pride myself on my spelling due to the fact that I can no longer spell! (and it gets worse every year)

    I will not edit that post, I shall bask in my shame.
