In which the Mister joins me in talking about MUDBOUND (2017), currently streaming on Netflix. Directed by Dee Rees, with writing credits to Dee Rees and Virgil Williams, from a novel by Hillary Jordan, the film follows The Jacksons and McAllans, during the 1940s in Mississippi. Two young male members from each family come back after WW2 to face life after the war, survivor's guilt and racism that consumes the South at this time. Fantastic actors and an incredible script make this a must watch experience. The film runs 2 h 14 m and is rated R. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.
