[QUOTE="Willie Oleson, post: 247115, member: 8"] [ATTACH type="full"]23976[/ATTACH] I had already watched 4 hours of FARGO so initially I was going to watch 10 minutes-of-something before I went to bed. However, being a fan of the dysfunctional dramasty, I found it unstopwatchable. That J.D. Vance decided to write his memoirs is just fine with me, and to put thoughts and feelings into written words usually helps us to understand the essence of whatever it is we're trying to understand. But is it a quintessential hillbilly story, or even a quintessential American story? Personally, I don't think so because you can find these families and communities everywhere. And the message that you can decide who you'll [I]become[/I] without forsaking your heritage is far, far from original. From that point of view I'd say this is nothing but a melodramatic TV movie, but one that entertained me from start to finish. And of course it was great so see Glenn Close in a lead role again. There's a guest role for Bo "Dynasty" Hopkins, and considering the demise of several prime time soap icons this year I found myself appreciating it more than I'd usually do. [/QUOTE]
