Academy Award? winner 'Billy Bob Thornton' (Best Adapted Screenplay, 'Sling Blade', 1996; 'Monster's Ball') has created another must-see motion picture as writer, director and star of this darkly humorous comedy treat! Also starring 'Laura Dern' ('Jurassic Park'), 'Diane Ladd' ('28 Days') and 'Kelly Preston' ('The Cat in the Hat'), it's the entertaining story of a dysfunctionally funny family from Arkansas that rallies to support their uncle ('Jim Varney' -- 'The Beverly Hillbillies') when he's charged with murder. With Hollywood favorites 'Andy Griffith', 'Ben Affleck' and 'Jamie Lee Curtis' in an amazing cast of stars, you'll love the amusing give-and-take dished out by this outrageous collection of characters!
Synopsis: When an Uncle (Jim Varney) is charged with murder, the event reverberates throughout a poor Arkansas family, including a struggling musician (Thornton) and his wife (Dern), her mother (Ladd), her sister (Preston), and his father (Andy Griffith).
