A young Tommy Lee Jones stars in this short subject production of Barn Burning
based on a William Faulkner short story. The film was shot in Faulkner country
in Mississippi.
Jones is a sharecropper and an abusive man to his wife and kids. When the planter whom he crops with has a carpet damaged he sues Jones for damage.
These folks are the quintessence of rural poverty not the proverbial pot to do number one in.
Jones feels he's being taken advantage of. But he's got plans.
Jones is great with the mark of stardom on him. The rest of the cast made of local players considerably less so.
