Some Folks Call it a SlingBlade
Directed by George Hickenlooper (Hearts of Darkness, The Brass Ring) "Some
Folks call it a Sling Blade" is the short film that inspired the academy
award winning feature. Sling Blade introduces us to Karl Childers, the
disturbed man who somehow manages to both chill and warm our hearts at the
same time. Written by and starring Billy Bob Thornton, it represents the
perfect example of a short film providing a platform for rising talent
(Drama/ Originally 26 minutes edited down to 20 for time reasons).
