Funny - I was just thinking about Huey Long not long ago because of a discussion on another thread - and here comes a movie (loosely) based on his life… Anyone seen it yet?
The original is 100x’s better.
Sean Penn ain’t no Willie Stark. He has the worst accent imaginable in this re-make.
Get the original, it is a classic.
Broderick Crawford is Willie Stark.
Same for “Cape Fear.”
I just watched the original the other day and was reminded of what a great movie it is. The re-make is a pale effort in comparison.
Great movie (the original) and easy to find in Taiwan. “O Brother Where Art Thou” had a character running for “govuh nuh” loosely based on Old Huey, (Though it was set in Mississippi)
