"The South has to be a character." Adam nailed it.
I always felt (at least in the tv show) that the trains and the tracks were characters in “In the Heat of the Night “.
perfect
Adam Swartz looks nothing NOTHING like a southerner 😆
Martha Calkins - Yes!
The reaction that all the others gave him when he says, "The South..." shows how true that statement is.
For me, Designing Women did a good job of portraying the south. Especially Julia Sugarbaker!!
I was thinking of Designing Women too
❤
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is also another great southern movie
Bingo.
Yep!
I was gonna say that! Love that movie but Alison Eastwood's accent is pretty bad.
It's an amazing "south as a character" movie because it really is something that genuinely couldn't happen anywhere else in any believable way.
YES!
Reese leaned hard into her Southernness doing press for “Walk the Line” won the Oscar and then kept it to build her brand. Southern women *are* allowed to age in pop culture in a way that most women aren’t.
To Kill a Mockingbird is one of my favorite movies and it felt pretty accurate to the south
I enjoy My Cousin Vinny cause it’s just hilarious.
To Kill a Mockingbird is a timeless classic that should be required viewing for all children as well as adults.
Sometimes I watch Reactor videos for movies (mostly to enjoy my favorite parts without rewatching a movie) but the comments are even better. I am honestly surprised by how many people honestly believe "My Cousin Vinny" is an accurate portrayal of Alabama, including that 10-year-olds can get the death penalty.
@@CindyNavarro I enjoy just watching Northerners get confused by things like grits like in the movie haha
I love My Cousin Vinny. It's a fairly accurate portrayal of small town Deep South of that time and it was restrained or at least not too over the top.
I think Andie MacDowell is a great authenic southern actress that does not get enough credit.
Teresa Cox I agree.
She was raised in South Carolina.
Gaffney!
I love Because of Winn Dixie as a southern movie. Wide group of characters in a small town. Filmed in Louisiana.
I was going to mention this one right before I saw your comment!
Another one would have to be "Walking Across Egypt"
Oh yeah. I was also gonna mention this movie. I also love it. It's based off the book by Kate DiCamillo. It's set in a small town in Florida (fictional town of Naomi), my home state. That's one way I connect to this movie.
The Blind Side is another good southern movie even if most people forget that it is set in the south. The cast didn't push the accents to strongly so they were mostly believable. The south was not a main character in the movie, but there were several scenes that would only be common to happen in the south even though some of those scenes were a little overplayed.
“It’s the South. We encumber you with hospitality.” - from The Firm, the John Grisham legal drama set in Memphis. My husband and I quote this line all the time!
Kathy Bates is another great southern actress. I love everything she's in.💕
Y'all don't forget about Sling Blade! Watching it for the first time I was like "I know these people!" 😂😂😂
I'm a Texan now, but spent 38 years in the north. When I moved here and found your channel, It actually helped me a lot to understand some things about different southern things. So, I'd say you absolutely ARE funny AND educational. Thank you!
Also, I think you were the first channel I subscribed to.
I love their comedy, but its also nice hearing their more in depth, more sophisticated analysis, of acting...or their professional "craft work". They are great comedic actors, but they are also smart and sharp people who make great points that can't necessarily be made in the "funny short videos"! I like ALL the content!😁👍🏻
IIRC, the reason Sissy Spacek did such a great job in Coal Miner’s Daughter was that she is from eastern Tennessee.
My personal favorite is Lucas Black (NCIS New Orleans). I love listening to his natural, authentic accent; and he's a good actor.
Y'all make me proud to be Southern. Take pride in that. You make me feel at home because of my personal history of experiences. You're good a what you do.
Born and raised in New Orleans and all of the above are true for me :). I'm teaching 5th grade in a semi-rural Southern Mississippi school and I can see the difference in my views and the way I was raised versus my co-teachers and my students'. Even within a 50 mile radius we're alike but different.
I'm from the Pacific Northwest and I've been following It's a Southern Thing from almost the beginning. It's been very evident that y'all are poking fun at the southern stereotypes. None of it has come across as "This is the South", as much as "Let's make fun of what you think the South is". For me, that's where the humor comes from. You have done an amazing job and I look forward to each of your posts. Keep up the good work!
Would y'all please do a video about the Southern Gothic genre and how it's different from what we consider a Southern genre?
Nobody with a good car needs to worry about nothin'. Nobody with a good car needs to be justified.
Mary Hildreth I agree. Movies have been made from works of Flannery O'Connor and Carson McCullers. Usually they are on cable at 3 am. But you are correct Southern Gothic is a thing for some of us.
No!
The all-time greatest Southern movie; "Gone With The Wind."
Scrolling the comments to see if anyone else mentioned it, before I did. :)
YES!
Facts
Mississippi Burning, A Time to Kill, Sweet Home Alabama are some of my favorite Southern films.
I love Mississippi Burning, Lex Luthor and the Green Goblin taking on racism.
The Green Mile, Midnight In The Garden Of Good And Evil, Interview With A Vampire. I also love Shag. It was low on accents, but still got a great part of the culture.
In regards to jokes about southern people. I am a southerner, so I can say this with confidence. If you want to insult a southerner, do not joke about intelligence or incest, or shoes. Those things have been over joked about and are no more true than the rest of the country. If you really want to insult a southerner, tell them that their grandmother's peach cobbler "Tastes okay."
My cousin Vinny was a great fun southern movie!!!!!
I've been loving these Lollygabbin' things that y'all are doing. I'm not from the south, but I do have a huge respect and Love for everything southern. Y'all are seriously awesome😀
I’m a Southerner who now lives in California. On New Year day, I cooked black-eyed peas, cabbage, and ham. Someone said. “ I thought that was a Southern ring.” I replied, “I’M A SOUTHERN THING!” 😂😂😂
I’m from eastern NC and still live here. I have a wife and in laws from Mexico. This year I decided to educate them and cook the pork chops, black eyed peas, and greens. It was a hit.
I'm a lifelong Californian married to a Navy brat who spent part of her childhood in the South. We also have black-eyed peas on New Year's Day.
@crashfisticuffs next time you guys have tacos, quesadillos, etc, switch the frijoles for black-eyed peas. I don't refry them, but I do add a little chili powder to my regular seasonings and I drain all the pot liquor because I don't want soggy food. I really like frijoles, but I LOVE black-eyed peas. They comingle wonderfully with the flavors of Mexican food. I call it south-mex. 😊
I may be biased as a Texan with this movie being set in Texas, but Friday Night Lights is a superb example of not just great southern accents in a movie, but overall just how important football is in the South!!
man that is so true
Great movie
I kept waiting for you to mention, “The Help.” I can’t speak to its authenticity, but it definitely portrayed the South as its own character.
Lewis Grizzard was the ultimate Southerner.
You guys mentioned great examples already, but here are two relatively recent ones, too: 1) Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Savanna GA is a definitely a character. 2) Doc Hollywood. Rural South Carolina is a character, too. Those films are an example of fish-out-of-water stories: non-Southerner in the South. More classically, there are Tennessee Williams plays adapted for the screen. All that feminine misery: "I've always depending on the kindness of strangers" etc. Those tend to be older though, as Williams' work has fallen out of fashion. Beyond even that, it's GWTW, or GWTW-adjacent material, along with 1950/60s civil rights material. On the whole, the South gets a fair amount of cinematic attention. It's an interesting region!
Doc Hollywood is a criminally underrated film. Especially if you're watching it with one southerner and a Yankee.
"Pitch on an injured toe? Really?"
"Yeah. Pitch has sulfur in it. It's an antibacterial." 😂 the things southern people just know is amazing.
Reese Witherspoon went to Harpeth hall high school. I guarantee she did not use a thick, southern accent there. to me, she has always had a standard southern city accent just like most people speak in Nashville, Chattanooga, Knoxville and Memphis
There's more than simply "Southern" to our accents. We have multiple regional variations just in NC alone. Then, you have family experience and people who have transplanted from other areas. Plus, there's a cadence to our conversations that's difficult to describe, but you just know it (like when listening to Lollygabbin' for instance).
I have never thought of any of your content as "not Southern" because it was not my personal experience. It's like family. I quickly recognize kin, but maybe it's like the cousins who haven't been to a reunion in 20 years.
As a Northern Virginian, which I know y'all find sketchy, I would be interested in your next round-up covering "Remember the Titans" and whether it is Southern enough. Love your stuff.
I spent most of my life in the Atlanta area before moving to a smaller town in South Carolina. I’ve also spent a lot of time in Carolina’s Low Country, which is where most of my relatives were/are. The South is a diverse area. I never called a shopping cart a buggy and I have no emotional attachment to Duke’s mayonnaise. I never heard of a pounding until I moved to my new town. So I enjoy y’all’s videos where I learn something new - I don’t say something isn’t Southern just because it wasn’t my experience. For example, I learned about Conecuh from watching Talia’s Kitchen! I saw something recently that struck me as possibly a Southern thing. A man had been shopping at the Dollar General, came out using his walker, folded it up and put it on what I thought was an ATV parked on the sidewalk. He proceeds to drive away and I realized he was on a riding mower. How Southern can you get? 😂
I’m from New Zealand and I’ve watched everything you have put out. I’m sharing this to say even though I can’t relate to a lot of it, it’s genuinely good enjoyable lighthearted content.
I would love to hear a vodcast section talking about Southern vs Appalachian
Def different fo sho! Rednecks vs hillbillies lol
I have a family friend who was raised by an Appalachian Native American family on the mothers side and Scottish family on the fathers side (from Scotland first gen in America) and then she spent her early life in Georgia. Her accent changes based on mood and she upholds most costumes she learned from birth to 40. It’s amazing and beautiful to be able to learn so much about so many customs and cultures which I would not have seen together without her.
I'm Appalachian (NC) and moved away 25 years ago and there is a definite difference.
I was glad to see you'all ( I can write this, but am a rural Massachusetts's guy and wouldn't talk that way) don't get as upset as I do about the way Hollywood portrays anyone from the South. To often, the Northern Elites feel superior to everyone from the South and I get upset at the type of humor they portray Southerner's with. Have spent time in Georgia, Alabama, Florida and the Carolina's, always seem to meet the nicest people. My wife and I are retired (10 years now) and spend the winters in Savannah, at my wife's brothers home. They (like my wife) are from a large Italian family, and cooking is just as important to them as down South. (Idea for a skit) My brother in law, his wife and 2 sons attend an AA Catholic church every Sunday. I miss Mass to often at home, but to be honest, I love going to that church, and never miss a Sunday. They were treated so well, even though there are only 4 white people in that parish. Except in the winter, then there are 6 of us. My sister in law talks about how after any funeral, everyone eats in the church hall. She joined the ladies group, and was invited to bring food for her first funeral meal, she arrived with a Lasagna, not one of the AA ladies knew what it was, but my sis in law said , they put it right in the front of the table so everyone could see it. Everyone wanted to know what it was, and took small pieces, so everyone could taste it. My sister in law said, she only ate the fried chicken, said she never ate anything that good before. Keep up the good work, I am enjoying everything you have done so far. (I was in the military, so more than half of the guys I served with were from the South.)
One of my relatives lived in Massachusetts for six years. Born and raised in the south. She didn’t have a strong southern accent. But when she would say “yes ma’am” or “no sir” like a good southern girl many either questioned her or were truly offended. She decided to stop saying it, even though it is a sign of respect here in the south.
My vote is for the movie about Winn Dixie. Not even sure it’s southern. But O Brother is top notch. Does interview with a vampire count as southern? I’ve only read the book, but it’s pretty much a New Orleans setting. Then there’s Gone with the Wind. My last choice is frowned upon now, but I grew up reading the books. Song of the South. I loved Brer Rabbit.
Wait. One more. Taladegah nights.
I was born in NC but I grew up in Jacksonville, FL. Not the rural part but the suburbs part. My accent is very faded. I worked telephone customer service from 1996-2009 & I would just lean into the accent heavily. Let me tell you, when you have a young girly sounding voice w/ a southern accent, almost no one wants to be mean to you! It was very helpful!
In terms of Southern movies that I have enjoyed, Fried Green Tomatoes, Driving Miss Daisy, The Green Book, The Help, and maybe pushing it a little but consider Hidden Figures to part of the list as well. Also enjoyed The Big Easy, the Porkies films as well. I could keep going on with the film list.
What I enjoy about your work on It's a Southern Thing, is even though I see the southern references, there is some very universal elements to your comedy as well. I have met people in Canada whom I have been reminded of, when watching your videos and some of the characters you have portrayed. Look forward to your future plans, they sound excellent, and I hope you will keep doing lollygabbin!
Their are all about race/class division
I have BEEN every one of those women in Steel Magnolias at some point in my life. I remember when I first became a stylist how it felt to interview for a job. I worked in a Smartstlyle, but I still remember feeling like I was talking to Dolly's character, and was just as awkward as Daryll's character. I remember when I copped an attitude like Olympia's character, felt the sorrow of Sally's, and finally had somehow ended up a mix of all of them with a heavy dose of Shirley's character's cynical nature. I still think of my mom as the person Sally's character was really based off of.
I enjoyed “The Legend of Bagger Vance”. It was filmed in South Carolina. Growing up and living in eastern NC, I enjoy seeing films and television shows which are filmed here. Just getting to see some of the small town buildings and landscapes in the background makes me feel good.
You guys nailed it! And please, more lollygabbin' vids. These are THE BEST.
It's been so long since I have watched anything put out by Hollywood I cannot even name a "southern" movie... after thinking about it for a while, I guess Grace Under Fire, starring Brett Butler is the last TV show I watched that I actually enjoyed in which being southern was front and center.
This is the third time I have written something in this box LOL Being dyslexic sometimes I write stuff and it doesn't come out sounding like what I want it to, like coherent LOL. Basically, let me just say that, I think you all do a great job! Your content is super relatable to so many of us. Although I live in Oklahoma, I still relate to so much of "Its a Southern Things" content. Your right, Celebrities can help or detract from sterotypes people think of, when they think of our state or region. I am Thankful for Celebrities like Reba McEntire, Ron Howard and Kristin Chenoweth who do an amazing job representing the OK state. I am proud to have them as fellow Okies! I am sorry you have people who are negative to you about your content. I always think you all do an awesome job! P.S. I am tired of people think that the midwest states are the "Fly Over" states. Sure you can fly over us but there is a LOT of gorgeous country, amazing sites to see and awesome people to meet. Great Job on another awesome Lollygabbin' I hope you do a third this has been great!
Yall forgot gone with the wind
They are to young for classic movies 😢
I thought that too. As well as Cat On A Hot Tin Roof. Shame.
Being from Louisiana you guys nailed it! Everyone thinks I am from New Orleans and know voodoo 😂😂😂😂. I grew up in Shreveport (all the way on the other end of the state) and wish I knew some voodoo 😂❤😂🌸
I'm from the New Orleans area and we kinda sound like we're from Brooklyn. I love watching movies set in NOLA because they make almost everyone Cajun, but give them a Colonel Sanders accent. There's usually a parade going on, no matter what part of the year it is. And there's usually a foot chase that begins in the French Quarter and ends in a swamp.
👋🏼 I was born an hour from Shreveport, later finished college there, worked and lived in the Shreveport-Bossier for about a decade. My sister and my bestie still live there. I always have to get Nicky’s, Counter Culture and Johnny’s when I go back to visit.
When you said you were from Shreveport and that people always assume you are from New Orleans and know voodoo I was reminded of a line from another Southern movie, The Princess and the Frog: "Y'all ain't from around here, are you? Y'all from Shreveport?"
@@stephaniehight2771 🤣🤣 I remember that!
I have a country-southern accent and you guys need me so much!!! I literally have people stop and ask me to talk to them!! 😂😂
It don't mean a thang
If it ain't got that twang 🎶
im a northerner and love your channel its so funnny i laugh a lot makes my day brighter
In The Garden Of Good And Evil and Hope Floats. Love a southern movie.
Of course, Fried Green Tomatoes and Steel Magnolias are on the top of my list. I actually went to colleg where Steel Magnolias was filmed. A newer southern book to film adaptation is “Where the Crawdad Sings”. Good book and even better movie. That doesn’t happen often. Which reminds me, “The Notebook”. Also a book set in the South that made an even better movie. Also, I’m originally from Northwest LA and Ryan is right! 😂 Although my grandpa did wear overalls and I still find The Waterboy hilarious.
Have you read Forest Gump? It was probably the worst book I've ever read and left me with mad respect for whoever decided it would make a good movie. Excellent movie. Horrible book.
@@cindyjburns I haven’t! Thanks for giving me the heads up. 😂 I didn’t think the Notebook was horrible but i could definitely tell it was Nicholas Spark’s first book. Left me, eh. I loved the movie though.
Favorite Southern Movies: Song of the South, all of Tammy movies, Gone with the Wind, To Kill a Mockingbird and Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil.
My mom tried to prevent my sister and I from having a Southern accent. She failed. Now our accents feed off each other.
Can I just say how much I want those bookcases? They’d fit about a third of my books.
Looking forward to more episodes.
Hey Alma ❤
My favorite southern movie is The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I am also glad someone mentioned Deliverance. Also Cool Hand Luke and Sling blade.
Smoky and the Bandit is a great Southern movie and filmed (partly) in my hometown, McDonough, Georgia. It is high on the camp-accent axis, especially Jackie Gleason’s horrible accent, but the sheer joy of Burt Reynolds and Jerry Reed overcomes it. Martin Sheen’s accent in Gettysburg makes Robert E. Lee sound like Michael Jackson. “Gentlemen, we must take this hill.”
I found it very interesting that when you mentioned retired in people in Florida, you had the impression they were playing an act when some of them start behaving more like the culture around them. I myself had kind of a culture shock being raised and living most of my life in urban areas, and then moved to a rural environment. I did change my behavior over time, too, a lot even, but not as an act, it was more like embracing the different culture. Some things like helping each other was just normal, and nobody even thinks about it, it's just the way things are done. You wouldn't do this in a big city like that, you would immediately taken advantage of without shame. So I wondered if maybe these retired people are just finding themselves in a good spot and are embracing culture and lifestyle the same way, as it just fits the environment and the people around them better?
I love Adam's T-shirt. I'm a huge Star Trek fan. I so enjoy It's a Southern Thing. I'm from Texas and Matthew McConaughey sounds as Texan as you can get. I can't go anywhere outside of Texas without people knowing I'm from Texas, the minute I start to speak. We talk slower with a Texas drawl. I'm proud to be a Texan and southern. Y'all keep doing what your doing and keep entertaining folks all over the world. We love y'all!
Hart of Dixie is one of my favorite shows set in the south!!
I came here to say this very thing! The main character is from NYC, but The South is definitely a character in the series! Does that mean it counts?
Smokey and the Bandit is the greatest Southern movie
A big platter of Talia's deviled eggs would have been nice to see😊
I just love these lollygabbing videos! 😊
Y’all need to watch Mama’s family. To me that is quintessential southern culture. It’s a comedy but it’s feels genuine and not like just mocking. It’s honestly kinda a sweet and nostalgic look at family life in the south. Imagine full house but a dysfunctional family from the south who all pretend to not like each other but secretly love each other and would do anything for each other.
Along with other films listed in the comments, others are Bait Shop (Bill Engvall & Billy Ray Cyrus), Brother, Where Art Thou, Disney's The Rescuers, Disney's Song of the South, Where The Red Fern Grows.
The tv shows Sordid Lives, Golden Girls, Evening Shade, Designing Women, True Blood.
More movies: Steel Magnolias, Lone Star, Tune In Tomorrow (Keanu Reeves, Peter Falk in New Orleans), Big Trouble, Raising Arizona (although that is in Arizona), the tv show King of the Hill (of Texas counts).
Two words - porch swings
They may have them elsewhere but we make them long enough to lay down and sleep on them. And we do.
How is the ultimate Southern movie
Gone with the Wind not mentioned? 🤷♀️
It’s set in the South, all the characters are Southern and the South itself is a character.
@erinstanger I don't think the woke culture of today is allowed to mention it exists.
It is an enjoyable movie, but it is very melodramatic. It’s definitely worth an honorable mention.
Gone with the Wind is one of the best southern movies.
It's not politically correct but who cares. I love it!
Agree. But off on a tangent - can we take a moment to appreciate all the great movies released in 1939.
I'd love to see y'all expand and work out a movie based on the "If Horror Films Really Took Place in the South" sketch. Flesh it out and make a comedy horror film.
The environment is trying to kill as well. Like, someone running away should step into a bed of fire ants. 😂
Or cicadas, alligators or spanish moss?
Or Kudzu.
"Put the bunny back in the box." If you know, you know.🤣
Laughed so hard at ‘deliverance’😅
“Cat On a Hot Tin Roof”, Elizabeth Taylor
“To Kill a Mockingbird”, Gregory Peck
“Where the Crawdads Sing”
Oh! Look at the kitty! I LOVE the kitty!
Big Fish is such a great movie ❤
Driving Miss Daisy
NCIS New Orleans was really good with being in the south. Saving grease came big time from the depression years.
Ya'll are great! I think you should do a movie called "It's a Southern Thing". Make it a road trip comedy about Southern friends going to all different parts of the South who meet cool Southerners who exemplify their part of the South. Funny and educational!
I can't believe no one has mentioned Billy Bob Thornton yet. While ALOT of his stuff is true garbage, Sling Blade and The Gift are two of the best Southern movies of all time
Billy Bob is 100% pure Southern goodness. One of my favorite actors EVER. But his films might be slightly too old for these young'uns! 🤣
Midnight in the garden of good and evil. It's a classic southern movie
Southern Films-Oh Brother, Where Art Thou (Mississippi), Forrest Gump (Alabama), The Help (Mississippi), Bernie (Texas), Remember the Titans (Virginia), The Princess and the Frog (Louisiana) etc...
Films Set In the South- My Cousin Vinny (set in Alabama), The Patriot (South Carolina), The Alamo (Texas), etc...
And then there are Civil War films, which are a category on their own.
Wouldn't Smokey and the Bandit be a southern movie?
The Stuff is a fun, campy horror movie that I'd consider a southern film.
I love that you guys are having these discussions. I traveled all over the US and am thinking of moving south so I started watching southern videos to understand regional language differences better (some of the phrases through me for a loop when I traveled for a living) - you all do an amazing job at exposing people to real southern accents while keeping it light and entertaining.
Drinking game: take a shot every time the word "like" is said. 😂
I counted 12 "likes" in one sentence. At that rate, a drinking game could kill you!
Like we'd be like dead in like you know like the first like 30 seconds.
I almost had to turn the video off because of the "likes."
“White Lightning” “Gator”, practically ANY Burt Reynolds movie actually! Anything with Jerry Reed, Sally Fields, Bo Hopkins, gosh my mind is blank right now. “The Outlaw Josey Wales”, “Southern Comfort”, “Porkys” for sure! Robert Duvall is another great actor who does the South justice. Val Kilmer is officially Southern adopted. The great Denzel has had a few moments when he represents also. “Walking Tall”- the original movie from the ‘70’s about sheriff Buford Pusser. So many great ones we can’t name them all, BUT we must NEVER FORGET,..”Gone with the Wind”. It’s a timeless historical piece that does NOT glorify slavery in any way, but instead exemplifies the qualities that made the black slaves of the South so beloved all around the world. If you’ve never watched it please don’t assume you know what it is or it’s about ; you don’t if you’ve never watched it.
You need to watch "Man in the Moon" Reese was definitely southern.
You should feel a pride in what you’re doing! As someone with an upper midwestern and west coast heritage who lives in neither of those places, feeling connected to many places, but rooted to nowhere your content has always felt very comforting. Also, definitely loved hearing from y’all in this format.
we can poke fun at ourselves. we know that when we say something its coming from a place of love and understanding and is not meant as an insult to our culture, but its harder to justify being made fun of by someone from outside.
This made me realize the only movies set in the Midwest take place near the Rocky Mountains/Yellowstone, Chicago, or Minnesota.
Wasn't "To Wong Foo, Love Julie Newmar" set in the rural midwest?
@@sharondavis9541 i'll look it up, this is the first iv ever heard of that movie
Driving Miss Daisy's was also a Southern movie.
The choice, the longest ride, the notebook
Steel Magnolias definitely, what about Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil?
My favorite "southern" movie is still "Long Hot Summer" with Paul Newman (1958). Probably because my mom likes it so much. I can't vouch for the accents though. It's been a while since I've seen the movie. LOL
I grew up in Memphis, mostly, and my family is from west Tennessee and northern Mississippi. Y'all are a taste of home. I also appreciate seeing how things are in other regions in the south.
"Slingblade"... "I Like the way you talk"
The women in Steel Magnolias reminds me of my grandmother and her sisters.
That is one very chill ginger tabby. Cool cat.
I definitely clicked for Liz to take Ryan to Six Flags! 😊
Steel Magnolias looked real because it was a real story. And the actors did an excellent job portraying them.
I loved con air growing up lol but yes, Caig's accent is outrageous.
All I can think of is My cousin Vinny and Fried green tomatoes!
Y'all need to watch Places of the Heart.... and Return to Bountiful!!... both are true stories from the south!!
I LOVED Places of The Heart!
