Trivia

Goofs
Film opened saying it was West Texas. NOT a chance as west Texas looks nothing like what is shown.

Quotes
Chief Moore: My daddy used to say, you wanna catch a killer, you go to the funeral. Look for anyone there who shouldn't be, that's your man. Nobody here today though, except Jonas. Hey Jonas, you kill this guy?

Top review

6/10

Confession is powerful

I would believe and render into the story, but the 1:43 hour picture is slow and its just not engaging. I did not feel impact in the final scene, because the character doesnt make you feel the weight of his guilty, the burden of killing a man. I kept straight face the whole film... and thats it. Without Michael Shannon i dont think i'd finish it.
