Would have been better if the sound wasn't so muted and bassy. that's the point of dailies and post; fix these essential elements. if you can't do that put subtitles on the film. southern accents are a problem especially when they mumble as they do here. the single guitar sound track is annoying a screams low budget; better have no music than poor music.
