Summary: 1950. Rural Alabama. Cotton harvest. It's a make-or-break weekend for the Honeydripper Lounge and its owner, piano player Tyrone "Pine Top" Purvis. Deep in debt to the liquor man, the chicken man, and the landlord, Tyrone is desperate to lure the young cotton pickers and local Army base recruits into his juke joint, away from Touissant's, the rival joint across the way...

Excellent period piece. Acting was solid. Story layered. Period reconstruction was solid. Music excellent. Slow pacing appropriate. We need more movies this good.

"John Sayles's mediocre Honeydipper is flanked by two great scenes." - Ed Gonzalez

It's time to acknowledge John Sayles' dependable good intentions. His latest film, Honeydripper, may have slipped through the cracks of December's big-ticket releases, but it's easily Sayles' best film in a good while.

Great dialogue, and a subtly evolving story that eases you into the culture and ways of 1950s Alabama. Loved the easy pace of the editing, and Lisa Gay Hamilton gives a wonderful performance as the club owner's wife.
