About this product

Product Information

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.

  • Great film, 10/10 better than many classics

    Terrific, a real work of art not just a very good story well told with good characters, well acted. Best bit was the surreal band practice dialogue which takes it beyond that. Better than anything Ive seen by famous director who said it was perfect.

  • Good Story.

    Great acting and story line. Quite an old film that didn't seem to get much exposure in the UK. Well worth a watch.
