Storyline

In 1931, a pair of super-slippery flim-flam men, Doc Boyd and DAD EVERETT, blow into the small town of Cornville, Texas, planning to bilk a few lonely widows with their tried-and-true dry-oil-well grift, which has already worked a half dozen times in Oklahoma. But when the unthinkable happens and they actually strike oil, that's just the first of the miracles that start popping forth from the dead soil of East Texas.
