Slow down, you'll get a more harmonious outcome.
Me too. My last name is McCoy. Should be interesting.
Sam...if it's December 1941 in Casablanca, what time is it in New York? I bet they're asleep in New York...I bet they're asleep all over America.
It's about time this story of Americana was revisited, and it was filmed in Romania, like Cold Mountain. The last production of this type was a made-for-TV movie in 1975. Later this year a big screen version called Bad Blood: The Hatfields and McCoys will be released, filmed in Kentucky.
Interesting, Jedburgh, thanks for the heads up.

Caught the preview for that one, unfortunately it has "straight to DVD" written all over it. The History Channel version looks much better.Originally Posted by Jedburgh OSS

Now don't be bad mouthing the whole Straight to DVD genre. I'm still upset that American Pie Band Camp didn't get Best Picture.
I've read up on the Hatfields etc. Wild time back then.

Groucho Marx said it best:
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere, diagnosing it incorrectly and applying all the wrong remedies.”
Is this the first true acted out movie-style drama for The History Channel, not to be confused with the brief scenes of docudramas they usually do? Several years ago National Geographic (with Hallmark) did a made for made-for-TV movie on Stanley and Livingstone that was pretty decent. It apparently was their only venture into this type of production.
Yes, as far as I know, and from the description on the History Channel website, it's being described as a full-length mini-series/drama.

It's nice to see this made into a movie. Should be interesting.

Saw both an extended trailer & then a shorter one at previews for The Avengers in IMAX 3D yesterday.
This should be a good one for period movie fans as well as hat folks.
Can't wait....

I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these to other people and I require the same from them.
