I don't understand.

I think the role of a good movie is to think rather than to vent the emotions in the heart.

Many people applauded Carl for killing Dory. If it's just that, this movie is telling people "just kill the person you are dissatisfied with." These clapping people forget that "violence will never solve the problem" Violence will only pay more.

Originally, Carl could live happily with his friends outside, but with limited wisdom, he could only solve problems simply and rudely. Dare to ask those who think that Carl killed the alcoholic and applauded, are you not as good as Carl?

Dolly the alcoholic, I don't know how to evaluate this person, but I have never had a good impression of alcoholics. When they don't drink, they are better at talking. Once they drink, they are especially prone to aggression. Whether it's verbal or real violence. I wonder if it's because they are actually very fragile and lose their minds easily under the influence of alcohol, but Dolly didn't have much emotional reaction when he was finally killed. I don't understand.

    It's just a nasty person, not to take people's lives. Even if it is for the child to have a better childhood, wouldn't helping him kill a person will not leave a shadow on him? Besides, with such a rotten person on the stall, isn't the child's mother responsible? She wasn't even weak, just lonely. One more star for the male lead's performance

    The film is a bit long and the rhythm is a bit slow, so I can guess. I also really like the way Carl speaks. Good, kind-hearted retard. Hey. . .

Sling Blade quotes

  • Melinda: Hi, Karl, I'm on my lunch break. I got you these flowers that were on sale, cause they're not fresh. $2.99, plus by 10% employee discount, since I didn't bring you anything on our date last night. Well, I just thought I'd bring them to you. I enjoyed walking with you. I got a blister the size of a quarter on my heel. Well, see you some time I guess.

    [Turns to leave]

    Karl: Blisters sure can hurt.

  • Charles Bushman: Karl, who'd you kill? Was it the boy?

    Karl: Don't you say another word about that boy. Fact'o business, don't you say another word to me. I ain't listening to you no more.
