Sure it's a lurid piece of trash (and that's why I love it), but isn't it actually a more honest picture of the antebellum south than gauzy, sentimental nonsense like "Gone With the Wind?"

1. Ask Strom

2. I honestly think that James Mason is doing Thurmond's voice in the movie

3. I love it when Al Franken imitates

Strom and says, "My pecka knows no biguhtree." :)

His daughters' book was announced on aol's news service today.

4. I once subjected Strom Jr to a 10 minute imitation of his damn father...

I was working in a copy shop during college. A resume came across the order table, I read the positions held and thought, "What the hell is this? There are no real jobs on this thing!" Well, I looked at the name at top and everything became clear. I would already imitate Thurmond when I was bored at work, so I had him down. His chinless scion had to listen to me fulminate about "mixing up the colored paper and the white paper" Fuck him.

7. No,

black exploitation from a certain film making era. IOW, it isn't more than it is and wasn't intended to be.

Edit: spelling, as usual.
