OP Oh the music is awesome. As a Southerner (sort of, Kentucky being a kind of border-state weirdness unto itself), I really appreciate the way that the film features classic country and bluegrass music. It's beautiful, sophisticated music that in our national culture is underrated. Most people associate bluegrass music with the film "Deliverance," which has done such WONDERS for the perception of Southerners in this country. *sarcasm alert* It has, however, kept property values low by preventing the migration of Northerners. ;|
Now before I pass myself as some sort of bluegrass aficionado, let me point out that my first exposure to that particular traditional song "O Death" was the Camper van Beethoven version, from their album "Our Beloved Revolutionary Sweetheart." I miss that band so much. What great music, and lyrics too. *sigh*
