"Absurdly entertaining and witty, this singular film spills over into magical realism as it entangles history with mythology \u2013 and, of course, music" The Guardian<\/i>
<\/div>\n <\/blockquote>\n

Three depression-era escaped convicts led by Everett (George Clooney) lead us through Mississippi in a series of vignettes capturing an eclectic range of American mythological, historical and folkloric themes of the time in this utterly unique comedy with its extraordinary soundtrack. Zany, poignant, a heart-warming tale and a riotous rollick through the 1930s South.
