Harlan County War | Year: 2000 Classification: Drama Directed: - Tony Bill Great glimpse of human spirit Loved this movie, although I understand from reading the other reviews that it's not completely accurate. Most things aren't, and we often don't perceive truth clearly no matter how it's presented. But this work does present a fascinating character, played by Holly, who starts off (I would say) passive and becomes activated by her situation, to the benefit of her community. I thought the interchange between her and her husband after her violence was especially great - wish more entertainment would explore such moments of true struggle. This has a very particular flavor. It leaves a particular impression - and the knowledge that the bad guys don't *always* win! Harlan KY I am from Harlan County KY, and I actually liked this movie. I think Holly Hunter did an excellent job! My father worked at Brookside, as well as my husband, only now the company is Manalapan. Coal miners and their families do have a tough life, then and now, I think the movie portrayed that very well. Harlan County, USA Watch the documentary "Harlan County, USA" by Barbara Kopple instead.
