Civil War
- Commentary: Under construction.
Lots of local buzz about this movie, which took me by surprise. I live in a seemingly quiet mountain town that likes to imagine itself a "rural city" (a quote from local news sources who have used this phrase, forever and a day, as self-descriptive). It has pretensions to grandeur based on a flagrant, state-wide governmental history, and, as well, just beneath the thin and cracking surface, an energetic, willing cadre ready to spring into action to defend "good people everywhere, but, especially here" if it seems necessary. Thus, I think this movie might have local significance. I'll let you know, once I watch it.
