White Lightnin' (2009)


Directed by: Dominic Murphy

This is a movie loosely, very loosley based on the infamous Jesco White. It starts out showin off his huffin and drug abuse. Its full of some pretty cool violence, mostly self mutilation. I question a lot of it, but then again it is a movie not a documentary. Almost seems like the only true parts are based off of the Dancing Outlaw series, but who knows how they came across some of the info. I think the weirdest thing is that this is a movie made in the Uk. I thought Jesco was mainly a local hero and had no idea that he is world famous!


The whole part how his father died is wrong, and i really doubt he spent that much time in mental health wards. It showed too much fiction and not much of the truth. I can understand changing names and stuff like that. Killing.....it may be just me but i dont know how people can get away with adding that to the story while hes still alive.

If it wasnt a movie "about" Jesco, and instead about a random person i would love it. It was shot good and had a real creep factor to it but i already know too much for it to seem real and not a complete work of fiction. Overall it was cool to see but i would prefer a life story in the true nature.

I still havent seen the Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia yet! I am really looking forward to it though. Im a huge Jesco Fan and have even seen him live before. So i hope it is as good as it seems.

Busy, Busy, Busy!

Man, ive had no free time in the past 3 weeks. Nearly everyday has been something goin on. So today im gonna knock this outta the way, watch some American pickers, drink some Pabst and hit the bed earlier than normal!


Got this sweet old bicycle mirror, put it on and hit the mean streets of Cleveland. Soon as i hit the streets the damn glass falls out and shatters! Waste of 2 bucks!

Some other cool stuff, not too good, but for the price they were a good find.

street sale n junk shops! my kinda day

i got all sortsa goodies this weekend! Started it off with a street sale/BBQ . Then came the rain! So im guessin you can figure how that went down. Me and Erin decided what ever didnt sell with the exception of records, movies, guitars, and things that are actually worth money that we were gonna pack it up in my car and just donate it. I think i had 5 garbage bags filled with crap that i had to haul down the road and unload.


Now enough of my ramblins, lets get on with the good stuff!

Some stuff i picked up while takin some fliers to the record shop
