Once you get into the guy's storytelling, this isn't a bad doco.--especially after a beer or two. The premise is good and well-laid out but sometimes he allows himself to wander from the plot. But not too far. Sometimes it's a fascinating insight into the mind of those in that Southern town. The images of the Civil War commeroration are powerful and I think, today, unique. The picture he concludes of his GG GF is actually more horrific than when he began. It ain't going to set your world on fire but it's keeps you watching. Enjoy.

A self absorbed meditation on white guilt.

Uninspired and overly narrated. This director needs to learn the term "show, don't tell". The story would have been interesting enough if the director would have gotten out of the way but instead he pushes his narrative down our throats at a snails pace.
A sorry attempt at a documentary

By far one of the worst documentaries I ever seen. If you took out all the very very very long useless pauses you would have a 30 minute movie. If you took out all the irrelevant information you may have 10 minutes. If you then took out all the unsubstantiated information you would have the title followed by the credits.
The narrators voice is beyond excruciating. I learned nothing. I think you're trying to make a point that racism existed and still exists. I think I knew that before this stupid movie.

Boring, Incohesive Self-Indulgent Mess

The Writer/Director single handedly ruined this film.
He narrates as though everyone should pay close attention to every syllable he utters. Drone on and on to the point where you just can't listen or care anymore.
This is terrible film making. Enough said.
