    This movie is a gem of an independent movie for those who enjoy the blues. It doesn't try to be more than it is and although it has some flaws it was a thoroughly enjoyable 95 minutes.

    This movie is well done and Lucas Black did an excellent job playing an Autistic individual as good as Dustin Hoffman's Rainman portrayal.
