Amazing movie! Finally someone who reacts to it thanks for your sacrifice haha. The cut troat scene is for me the most realistically looking gore scene I've ever seen it's super brutal. Amazing performance from Tom Hardy but Jessica Chastain takes the cake as she almost always do in movies she in. "Not a got damn thing happened" is a line that was written for her.
I wouldn't say it's underated myself, most my mates love this flick as much as myself, Tom Hardys best work imo and I'm a huge Hardy fan, when I seen the advertisement in community section I was like ok I'll have to join patreon for the reaction lol but here we are, cool bananas 🥰😎🤟🤍🤍🤍
@metalheadsmurf2835 haha aww, this one kept getting blocked on youtube so I thought for usre it would be stuck on Patreon for much longer. By luck the copyright was released this morning :)
@@metalheadsmurf2835 well no one really talks about this movie. I've never heard anyone talk about it. It's sort of Been forgotten that's why I'd say underrated
@@itzbp9949yeah fair enough mate, I guess I just travel in a different pack of wolves hence the different feedback on this, didn't really go mainstream either even with a hot cast 😎🤟👍
In the film, Jessica Chastain drives Forrest, but in reality, as his grand nephew tells is, Forrest did in fact walk several miles to the hospital holding his throat closed between his fingers. Legend has it anywhere between 9-20 miles. He also was indeed shot a bunch and survived.
Tom Hardy: English Guy Pearce: Australian Jason Clarke: Australian Shia LaBeouf: American Mia Wasikowska: Australian Jessica Chastain: American Noah Taylor: Australian Gary Oldman: English Fair to say it was a mixed cast. The Screenwriter, Nick Cave, is a great Aussie musso. Check out Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.
I love this film , so glad u watched it , Great reaction . All the actors in this film was brilliant , Master piece of a film . My fav quote is when tom hardy says " Its not the violence that sets a man apart its the distance he's prepared to go " So true
Pretty sure it's a version of "The question is not how far. The question is, do you possess the constitution, the depth of faith, to go as far is as needed?" which might be some kinda bible quote - I only know that because Billy Connolly says it in The Boondock Saints.
You want to watch another Tom Hardy movie that’s really great, watch Locke. It’s a movie just him driving, but you get to see his masterclass in acting.
Here's that word again! (underated) lol I just disagree again lol Guy Pearce is one of Australia's most loved actors, Priscilla queen of the dessert made him a household name, that's a movie I can watch at least once a year 🔥 loved it!! big fan of his most recent work on jack Irish aswel.
I've done Priscilla! I think that's what made this performance stand out so much - how he can play such different roles. It's on my Patreon for now, just waiting for it to clear some copyright issues before posting it to youtube :)
If you liked this one I recommend The Proposition from the same director/screenwriter duo. It's a reall gritty, dirty Australian western and it goes hard.
I would very highly recommend a Tom Hardy film from 2014 called The Drop, it also stars Noomi Rapace, and James Gandolfini (in his final film role). Everyone is amazing in it but Hardy puts in a performance that for me is even above his other roles, it really hits deep. If you are familiar with the writer Dennis Lehane it is based on one of his short stories.
I saw this film, loved it, and so bought the non fiction book it’s based off. Almost nothing that happens in the movie happens in the book. There’s no gunfights, no tangles with law enforcement or gangs, and there’s only one fistfight in the whole book. Basically it’s just a man nostalgically writing about his youth and the vanished world of bootlegging. I mean, it’s a fine book and well written, but I have no idea who read it and thought it’d make a great action film.
The Proposition is also written by Nick Cave and a great (Ausside) film, directed by Hillcoat too. Wish they'd adapt ...And the Ass Saw The Angel. Cave also wrote a script for the sequel to Gladiator that was rejected for being "insane" 🤣 Actually - if you haven't seen it, you should check out The Boondock Saints - Norman Reedus, Billy connolly, Sean Patrick Flannery and Willem Dafoe (in a GLORIOUS role). It's amazing fun and the "making of" story is utterly bonkers - how to trash you career as a Director 101, but the end result is totally worth it, it's an amazing fun, funny action-thriller that the studio basically buried out of spite at the Director.
Guy Pearce is an inforcer hiding behind a badge. The new attorney is just as corrupt and Pearce works for him to keep people scared. Tom Hardy's character did fall into a pond but he actually froze to death later that night in an unheated bedroom.
Hey Chrissie, Another great reaction. I'm sure I've mentioned this before but another great movie with both screen play and composition by the One and Only Nick Cave. It also stars Guy Pearce the main actor. The "Proposition" Great cinematography Storyline Very underrated but a great movie none the less. Definitely worth reacting to. Enjoy
Pannus stomach occurs when extra skin and fat deposits hang from the stomach or belly area on the abdomen. It sometimes occurs after pregnancy or weight changes. The excess tissue from a previous body shape can hang down, varying in length and size.
Tom is always dependable. Great actor, and authentic real life hard man. Chased and took down a couple of young thugs a few years back. They’d been purse snatching and assaulting women, so he decided to take care of business. Like a real life Mr Inbetween.
Nationwide prohibition in the US was from 1920 to 1933. After that some counties still enforced different forms of prohibition locally. Sometimes it was complete prohibition. Sometimes it would only allow alcohol sale/service on the weekends, etc.. . Beyond that, selling any alcohol without a license is illegal anyways. In certain situations crooked local law enforcement would turn their heads as long as the bootleggers gave them a cut of the money.
The brass knuckles is how he “controls the fear”. He wants them to believe he’s a monster, and is invincible. Thats why he hides it in his pocket before others see it.
Hahaha I'm in the minority with this, I know - I can objectively see that he's an attractive man but he doesn't do it for me in that sense. I genuinely appreciate his talent though!
Yes, back then, you could use moonshine for gas in cars. Back in prohibition days, they had 'Moonshine Rummers', these were race cars specifically built to run on moonshine and outrun the police, originally Nascar was born from moonshine running. And yes, it was very violent back then and life was not valued at all, particularly in the midwest and my area, the south.
@@chrissiereacts You should watch White Lightning with Burt Reynolds and Ned Beatty. It was set in present day (1973) Arkansas, and bootlegging/blackmail/bribery was still going on. Much, MUCH less violent film!
Top flick! Guy Pearce is Australia's most underrated actor I.M.O. Going to keep recommending Sexy Beast. Would love to see your reaction to that movie. Ben Kingsley like you've never seen him before.
@@chrissiereacts did anyone in the comments mention that Lawless was based on a real family and that the brother played by Tom Hardy did get his throat slit in real life and survive?
@@chrissiereacts lol, my bad that I missed the very end of your vid with the photo of the 3 boys when they were younger....In the true life story of the brothers, Jessica Chastains character did not drive Forrest to the doctor. Forrest walked all the way. Anyway, I won't bore you anymore as it is a fascinating story either way... : ) Thanks for the review and as an Aussie, loved your take on Mr In-between, Chopper and Mad Max.
Love this movie, I am from Henry county Virginia, right next to Franklin Co, and have family from Franklin county. I worked in the town of Rocky Mount for a few years. If you look at the motel and such in the movie it’s says Rocky Mount throughout. Look up Rocky Mount, Virginia for some modern pictures. It’s the main town of Franklin County. It’s a gorgeous area with a rich history.
Back in like 2009 I was walking through Albert Park (Melbourne) at 6am, on my way to work. I met Guy Pearce on the path by the lake; we were walking in opposite directions. As we approached each other, our brief conversation went like this: Me: "You have a dog." (which he did) Guy: "Yeah, I do." Me: "Just like everybody else." Guy (turning backwards to face me and with his voice slightly raised, as we had passed each other by now) "Just like everybody else." Weird moment. By rights, he should have just ignored me. Seemed like a nice bloke.
Thank you, that is a great movie. The scene where they were washing feet, was what Jesus did. He washed Mary's feet as a sign of humility . My favorite movie
If you wanna see Hardy's best performance next to 'Bronson', I highly recommend 'Stuard a life backwards' (Benedict Cumberbatch is in it as well). It's a very nice movie although not very popular. He's also very very good in The Revenant, but the other two I mentioned are S Tier stuff.
People like to think that's the past was so good. Bad stuff has happened. All through history. Now is no different. Politicians are corrupt. And we the people are supposed to just take it.
Classic !!! Great Reaction. I'd recommend "The Town" w/Ben Affleck, "Contraband" w/Mark Wahlnerg, and "Judgement Night" w/Emilio Estevez and Cuba Gooding Jr. "The Drop" w/Tom Hardy and James Gandolfini (RIP) is another great one also. Anyway, each film is a classic and hopefully you get around to checking them out at some point . Take Care.
My favourite Tom Hardy movie is The Drop with James Gandolfini in his last film you need to do a reaction on that one Chrissie Tom very talkative in that one as well
The Church scene that you thought was weird fascinated me when I first saw it at the theaters. So I researched it. I knew the washing of the feet was a Christian thing for Jesus washing the Disciples feet in John 13. And the singing is called Sacred Harp. It dates back to the colonial New England area, then became more popular in the south. The album I know of and have listened to is Sacred Harp Singing in Western Massachusetts 2000-2001.
I've never seen anyone get up and walk out of a cinema before but this film was the one. I don't think anyone was really expecting it to be as blood curdlingly violent as it was. I thought it was a good film but I did have to sort of grin and bear it at times, especially when they sawed in to the brother's neck with a knife. Tarred, that fella, castrated those other dudes. It was hard to watch Shia's character get beaten the way he did by the greasy bad guy cop too.
@@chrissiereacts - So do you Hate Guy Piece now or is this the start of the journey for you in hating him. He is so Evil in this movie - next series = Justified, a few characters from previous reaction movies that you have done in this one.
Yeah I've heard really great things about Justified so on my list for sure. If anything I appreciate Guy Pearce even more! The roles I've seen him play are so vastly different. A real talent.
7:00 its not weird, you are weird thinking its something sexual going on! at the last supper jesus washes all the disciples feet, to represent that his act of kindness and how he isnt above anything or anyone. get your mind out of the gutter.
It certainly is weird, as is anything with religious connotations. And that ain't no blasphemin' 'cause if you look up the word in dictionary you will see that "weird" is defined as "suggesting something supernatural; unearthly".
I highly recommend a uk tv series called taboo with Tom hardy ! Its only got one season! They did threaten to do a second season but it’s been 7 years since the first one so I highly doubt they will do another one!!!! It’s my favourite performance by Tom hardy !!!
What is the religion of your country? I would imagine its a mixture of almost every religion, that was brought there by immigrants past and present, and before that, the native Americans religion. So if I was asked what is the true religion of North America, I would have to say it was that of the natives. Or do you think one of the religions that has only been practised on that land mass for the last few centuries is more American?? 🤔 And for you chrissie the only reason they focus on the knuckleduster so much, is that the knuckleduster was hung on the wall by one of the brothers and decades later a son/grandson questioned him about it. And after that the whole story of the bootlegging bondurrant bros came to be written and heard of outside of where it happened.
@@beardedloon77 He's talking about how the basics of Christianity used to be known to everyone, as it's one of the pillars of Western Civilization. Seems most people are completely ignorant of it today.
If we gon talk about Aussie film stuff we have to mention the Aussie film Animal Kingdom. The cast is crazy good too with Guy Pearce, Joel Edgerton, Jacki Weaver, and Ben Mendelsohn. An absolute banger of a crime film. Def put in the Chrissy watch list. But of course Hollywood had to get their greedy hands on the IP by making a shite American TV Show based on the movie.
A true story that is not told enough. It is surprising to me how new generations do not know stories from American history. I watch people reacting to the movie Tombstone and not realize these were real people and real events. What are the teaching in American History in school?
You have to remember that not every reactor you watch is American lol. As a Canadian, it would be very strange to learn about American history in class. We have our own history and our own lessons...
@chrissiereacts I am sorry I was not speaking of you specifically but most younger reactors in general. You would absolutely be an exception. By the way I love your channel. Always a great reaction.
Love this movie... other gangster type movies you should check out are Road to Perdition with Tom Hanks and Paul Newman , and Last man standing with Bruce Willis.😉
Great movie. Still recommend The Drop for your Tom Hardy Season 😆. If you've not seen it The Untouchables is a great prohibition movie. Connery, Costner and a great Andy Garcia perfomance. Violent yes, but not as bad as Lawless. Love the honest reactions; anger, sadness, horror. from my point of view they all come through as comedy though, in a good way.
The cops from Chicago have been called in to deal with the moonshine problem and the other guys forest is telling to pick a side are other moonshiners in the valley or something
@@chrissiereactsno ...his OFFICIAL title was DEPUTY Rakes. he was most definitely a lawman --- just non-deserving of the neither role, nor the title 🤷🏻♀️.....but, yes, a cop nonetheless.
you cant go wrong with Tom Hardy pre venom of course! my favorite is Warrior although you have to watch Legend as well. He played gangster twin brothers. amazing true story!
@@chrissiereacts Doh! just saw that in your playlist. You can skip venom in my opinion. He kinda sold out on the super hero thing. I will suggest the FX tv series Taboo as well. I was very sad when Tom decided to end the series it was so good as well.❤
can we please not make her cry though people 🧸 hehe - you should watch his passion project mini series called Taboo ⚓️ it’s got Stephen Graham from this is England too 🙏🏼
An Indian here... Just watched your RRR reaction. You should next checkout Sardar Udham film. This movie is like diamond in a coal mine. It is the Greatest story you've never heard of. If you are reading this then please watch it asap.
Top 5 tom hardy roles he is one of a kind when you have time check out sequel of once were warrors it is called what becomes of broken hearted it is not masterpiece as first part but it is pretty solid it showes development of jake the muss carachter and his change 👍
Washing of the feet is a great sign of humility in biblical times, especially, and Jesus washed the feet of his disciples, which was an outstanding display of humility by the sond of God. The practice is very spiritual and powerful in Christianity
Quentin Tarantino has always had barefoot scenes in his movies. And Inglorious Basterds came out before Lawless. Washing of feet was a thing in the Bible. 1..because they wore sandals. And 2, it symbolizes humility and Jesus' teachings of putting others before yourself. Here in this scene in the German Baptist church, it is, done as a ritual to remind them to put those traits into practice.
@@metalheadsmurf2835 Alfie Solomons, and he had the best lines in the entire show imo "I am the uncle, and the protector, and the promoter of that fcking thing right there, in whose shadow nothing good nor godly will ever fcking grow. That there, right, is the southern counties' welterweight champion. He is of mixed religion, therefore he is godless. He was adopted by Satan himself before he was returned out of fear of his awkwardness. But he's impossible to marry off due to his lethal dimensions. His mother, terrified, she's fcking abandoned him. And there he is, stood before you like the first of some brand-new fcking species! Any man that you put before him, right, it'd be like entering a fcking threshing machine, mate. Now, will you offer your son?"
@@ray.shoesmithAlfie Solomons yes that's right!! had some wicked lines for sure, reading your comment quoting his lines you even added right or right then after he said some outrageous comments lol but it was the way he said it, a little manic but being very serious, kind of need to know the character to know what I mean Lol

Amazing movie! Finally someone who reacts to it thanks for your sacrifice haha. The cut troat scene is for me the most realistically looking gore scene I've ever seen it's super brutal. Amazing performance from Tom Hardy but Jessica Chastain takes the cake as she almost always do in movies she in. "Not a got damn thing happened" is a line that was written for her.
Your facial expressions during violent scenes is priceless!!!😁

My favorite Tom Hardy movie is The Drop.
Definition of an UNDERRATED FILM
Another great Tom Hardy and Gary Oldman movie is Child 44 - underrated but actually one of my favorites of his
You want to watch another Tom Hardy movie that’s really great, watch Locke. It’s a movie just him driving, but you get to see his masterclass in acting.
Yes! I've heard so many great things about his performance in that. But most people tell me it's better as a solo watch vs a reaction
Love your reactions Chrissie, very emotional, the only real reaction channel out there.
I love this movie. Tom Hardy is this generation's Brando.
That was intensely enjoyable. 😉 Thanks for sharing your reaction with us, sweet lady. 🤗
If you haven't seen The Highwaymen yet I would HIGHLY recommend that be your next watch.
We have a long, violent history here in Southern Appalachia. My family has been here since 1770, and some things never change.
Oh wow! Deep history there!
Guy Pierce is a very underrated Australian actor. The Proposition is a great Australian film he plays the lead in. Thanks Chrissie.😊
He's so great. Good to know! I'll add it to my list :)

Not yet!
You've gotta watch the director's (John Hillcoat) ''The Proposition'' (2005) & ''The Road'' (2009).
One of my favourite movies. Get no where near the credit it deserves
My god Guy Pearce freaks me out in this. The Bloke's a legend and seems like a really nice... well, guy.
The TV series Jack Irish is fantastic btw.
If you like Gary Oldman watch Leon (The Professional) - with Jean Reno and a VERY young Natalie Portman
The Proposition is also written by Nick Cave and a great (Ausside) film, directed by Hillcoat too.
Wish they'd adapt ...And the Ass Saw The Angel.
Cave also wrote a script for the sequel to Gladiator that was rejected for being "insane" 🤣

I've never seen anyone get up and walk out of a cinema before but this film was the one. I don't think anyone was really expecting it to be as blood curdlingly violent as it was. I thought it was a good film but I did have to sort of grin and bear it at times, especially when they sawed in to the brother's neck with a knife. Tarred, that fella, castrated those other dudes.
It was hard to watch Shia's character get beaten the way he did by the greasy bad guy cop too.
And this is why they called the movie "Lawless" - what did you expect?
A romcom starring J-Law and Leslie Nielsen. Obviously.
@@chrissiereacts - So do you Hate Guy Piece now or is this the start of the journey for you in hating him. He is so Evil in this movie - next series = Justified, a few characters from previous reaction movies that you have done in this one.
Yeah I've heard really great things about Justified so on my list for sure.
If anything I appreciate Guy Pearce even more! The roles I've seen him play are so vastly different. A real talent.
@@chrissiereacts - Look at the Talent in Justified and where they have ended up.
7:00 its not weird, you are weird thinking its something sexual going on! at the last supper jesus washes all the disciples feet, to represent that his act of kindness and how he isnt above anything or anyone. get your mind out of the gutter.
No.
It certainly is weird, as is anything with religious connotations. And that ain't no blasphemin' 'cause if you look up the word in dictionary you will see that "weird" is defined as "suggesting something supernatural; unearthly".
I highly recommend a uk tv series called taboo with Tom hardy ! Its only got one season! They did threaten to do a second season but it’s been 7 years since the first one so I highly doubt they will do another one!!!! It’s my favourite performance by Tom hardy !!!
Man, I love this movie!🔥🔥
Chrissie at 8:45 looking shocked. Just wait…..
Cricket was dealt a dirty hand in this love his character
I'm a tad disturbed by how few know of history or religion of this country.
I'm not from that country lol so 🤷🏼♀️
What is the religion of your country? I would imagine its a mixture of almost every religion, that was brought there by immigrants past and present, and before that, the native Americans religion.
So if I was asked what is the true religion of North America, I would have to say it was that of the natives.
Or do you think one of the religions that has only been practised on that land mass for the last few centuries is more American?? 🤔
And for you chrissie the only reason they focus on the knuckleduster so much, is that the knuckleduster was hung on the wall by one of the brothers and decades later a son/grandson questioned him about it. And after that the whole story of the bootlegging bondurrant bros came to be written and heard of outside of where it happened.
you're one of those idiots who thinks everything on the internet is American, aren't you?
@@beardedloon77 He's talking about how the basics of Christianity used to be known to everyone, as it's one of the pillars of Western Civilization. Seems most people are completely ignorant of it today.
@@frankmartin3600 Good answer, my friend. People are just as ignorant now as they have always been. I giuess some things never change.
If we gon talk about Aussie film stuff we have to mention the Aussie film Animal Kingdom. The cast is crazy good too with Guy Pearce, Joel Edgerton, Jacki Weaver, and Ben Mendelsohn. An absolute banger of a crime film. Def put in the Chrissy watch list.
But of course Hollywood had to get their greedy hands on the IP by making a shite American TV Show based on the movie.
High on my list!
i 2nd this statement 🙋🏻♀️.....& i move to bump it up said list.
it's most imperative 😁
It is fascinating seeing some peoples visceral reaction to fictional violence.
On another note, I might be dead inside.
A true story that is not told enough. It is surprising to me how new generations do not know stories from American history. I watch people reacting to the movie Tombstone and not realize these were real people and real events. What are the teaching in American History in school?
You have to remember that not every reactor you watch is American lol. As a Canadian, it would be very strange to learn about American history in class. We have our own history and our own lessons...
@chrissiereacts I am sorry I was not speaking of you specifically but most younger reactors in general. You would absolutely be an exception. By the way I love your channel. Always a great reaction.
Other great movies...Gangs of New York & No Country For Old Men.
Both on my list! :)
Love this movie... other gangster type movies you should check out are Road to Perdition with Tom Hanks and Paul Newman , and Last man standing with Bruce Willis.😉
I can watch this movie over and over
Great movie. Still recommend The Drop for your Tom Hardy Season 😆.
If you've not seen it The Untouchables is a great prohibition movie. Connery, Costner and a great Andy Garcia perfomance. Violent yes, but not as bad as Lawless.
Love the honest reactions; anger, sadness, horror. from my point of view they all come through as comedy though, in a good way.
The cops from Chicago have been called in to deal with the moonshine problem and the other guys forest is telling to pick a side are other moonshiners in the valley or something
But I think Guy Pearce is mob not cop?
@@chrissiereactsno ...his OFFICIAL title was DEPUTY Rakes. he was most definitely a lawman --- just non-deserving of the neither role, nor the title 🤷🏻♀️.....but, yes, a cop nonetheless.
So enjoyable, more pls 🙏
I just watched this last week, check out OUT OF THE FURNACE with Christian Bale
Nice!
@@chrissiereacts Out Of The Furnace is also rough and gritty. Woody Harrelson plays an absolutely vile human being.
The other guys they met with are other Moonshiners. The ones he told to pick a side.
Busty...
you cant go wrong with Tom Hardy pre venom of course!
my favorite is Warrior
although you have to watch Legend as well. He played gangster twin brothers. amazing true story!
Those are all on my channel ;) except Venom, which I haven't seen
@@chrissiereacts Doh! just saw that in your playlist. You can skip venom in my opinion. He kinda sold out on the super hero thing. I will suggest the FX tv series Taboo as well. I was very sad when Tom decided to end the series it was so good as well.❤
can we please not make her cry though people 🧸 hehe - you should watch his passion project mini series called Taboo ⚓️ it’s got Stephen Graham from this is England too 🙏🏼
An Indian here...
Just watched your RRR reaction.
You should next checkout Sardar Udham film.
This movie is like diamond in a coal mine.
It is the Greatest story you've never heard of.
If you are reading this then please watch it asap.
The movie is called Lawless
A great Shia movie is “Man Down”. Go into it blind and it’s a great movie imo. Not for everyone tho
chrissie you should definitly watch tom hardy's series "taboo" it's fantastic such an underrated gem on YT
Top 5 tom hardy roles he is one of a kind when you have time check out sequel of once were warrors it is called what becomes of broken hearted it is not masterpiece as first part but it is pretty solid it showes development of jake the muss carachter and his change 👍
I assume you’ve already seen Bronson and done a reaction? One of Hardy’s best performances
Yes :)
If you want another good prohibition movie I'd recommend the untouchables
@22:44 A Predatoresque movie moment with that little sound effect? :)
just great!
Can you react to goodfellas?
Washing of the feet is a great sign of humility in biblical times, especially, and Jesus washed the feet of his disciples, which was an outstanding display of humility by the sond of God. The practice is very spiritual and powerful in Christianity
you should check out blue ruin and green room
There are some shocking movies out there. Only watch if you want to.
Quentin Tarantino has always had barefoot scenes in his movies. And Inglorious Basterds came out before Lawless.
Washing of feet was a thing in the Bible. 1..because they wore sandals. And 2, it symbolizes humility and Jesus' teachings of putting others before yourself. Here in this scene in the German Baptist church, it is, done as a ritual to remind them to put those traits into practice.
I know you violence. .. but we got to understand what was before us so we can make a change.
Tom Hardy in The Drop (2014) , he plays a autistic bar tender who gets caught up in the mob
Terrifier for Halloween??
Yes yes yes
Chrissie if you love Tom Hardy you really need to react to Peaky Blinders. He and Cillian Murphy own that show playing 1920's English gangsters.
@@ray.shoesmith ill have to agree with you on that, i think he's Alfie isn't he, soooo good!! 👌
@@metalheadsmurf2835 Alfie Solomons, and he had the best lines in the entire show imo
"I am the uncle, and the protector, and the promoter of that fcking thing right there, in whose shadow nothing good nor godly will ever fcking grow. That there, right, is the southern counties' welterweight champion. He is of mixed religion, therefore he is godless. He was adopted by Satan himself before he was returned out of fear of his awkwardness. But he's impossible to marry off due to his lethal dimensions. His mother, terrified, she's fcking abandoned him. And there he is, stood before you like the first of some brand-new fcking species! Any man that you put before him, right, it'd be like entering a fcking threshing machine, mate. Now, will you offer your son?"
@@ray.shoesmithAlfie Solomons yes that's right!! had some wicked lines for sure, reading your comment quoting his lines you even added right or right then after he said some outrageous comments lol but it was the way he said it, a little manic but being very serious, kind of need to know the character to know what I mean Lol
My granddad got nabbed by the feds in the 20s, he was a graduate of Lwavenworth @ Kansas with the fed degrees in Moonshining and Poverty Studies that came with it.
Coal went into the toilet right after the war (WWI) so the depression came early to Appalachia. It was root, Hog, or moonshine,or starve.
