How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A scrappy, good-hearted revenge tale where two country musicians fight back against exploitation with humor and heart. It's slight but spirited, a film that trusts its performers and the camaraderie between its leads to carry it.
