Fine film
“King of the Hill” is a great film. The acting is brilliant. Jesse Bradford is a stand out and it’s one of those performances where you’re awed by the fact that someone that young can be such a fantastic actor (like with Haley Joel Osment in “The Sixth Sense” and Eamonn Owens in “The Butcher Boy”). It’s also interesting to see Adrien Brody in an early role as I just noticed him a few weeks ago when I saw “Summer of Sam”. The film itself is also a very interesting and touching drama. Bravo Soderbergh! (7/10)

An unknown movie that deserves to be well-known
In the 1933 Depression, Aaron (an impossibly young Jesse Bradford) is left all alone after his brother is sent away, his mother put in a sanitarium and his father has to leave to work for money. We see what the Depression was REALLY like through young Aaron’s eyes. Too often the 1930s are romanticized…but not here!

It is grim and powerful but there’s also some very funny moments and a GREAT happy ending that was (more or less) believable. I read and studied the Depression in school and this movie got everything right–especially about the hell people went through. Also it looks fantastic! They got the cars, clothes, houses and everything right on target. This movie also has an incredible cast. Jeroen Krabbe (faking an American accent pretty well), Lisa Eichorn, Spaulding Grey, Karen Allen and Elizabeth McGovern all have small roles but are great in them, but it’s Bradford who holds the film together. He was only 14 when he did this and he’s GREAT! He anchors the film and is believable every step of the way. Also look for an unknown Katherine Heigl and future Oscar winner Adien Brody in small roles. This was a hard movie to market and the studio didn’t even try. It died pretty quickly. I only caught it by accident on cable and was blown away by how good it is. This is an excellent film and easily one of the best film of the 1990s. A definite must see!
