Title: Mud
Review Very interesting film set in rural Arkansas mostly about growing up in the river culture and trying to survive and become a man. Eye opener on McConaughey’s talents (immense). Shepherd is old, wily and weathered in a great short role. Reece plays totally against type. A very moving film though it dragged in places and lost its way a bit. Beautifully shot and nice score. Tye Sheridan is a star in the making.
