Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia

Recommended Posts

Anyone seen The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia? Amazing and very well done film. Hard to watch at times, funny at others.

"The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia
About the film

Shoot-outs, robberies, gas-huffing , drug dealing, pill popping, murders, and tap dancing - what do these all have in common? These are just a few of the parts of being a member of the Wild and Wonderful White Family. The legendary family is as known for their wild, excessive criminal ways as they are for their famous mountain dancing members, including Jesco White, the star of the cult classic documentary, Dancing Outlaw. Exploring both the comic and tragic sides of life on the other side of the law, this stylish, fast-paced family portrait exposes the powerful forces of corruption, poverty, and West Virginia's environmentally and culturally devastating coal mining culture that helped shape the White family, a dying breed of outlaws preserving a dying form of dance."

Yep, it looked not so much like a documentary to me as a cautionary tale.:S

D. Ray White's tap dancing was cool. Too bad the family seems to be mired in ignorance and apathy and drug abuse.[:/]


That family is a train wreck. It was clear from watching the documentary that even the little kids are headed for trouble.

I don't know about you, but I probably wouldn't remember much of that at all...
