520    "Written and directed by John Sayles, this wrenching 
       historical drama recounts the true story of a West 
       Virginia coal town where the local miners' struggle to 
       form a union rose to the pitch of all-out war in 1920. 
       When Matewan's miners go on strike, organizer Joe Kenehan 
       (Chris Cooper, in his film debut), arrives to help them, 
       uniting workers white and black, Appalachia-born and 
       immigrant, while urging patience in the face of the coal 
       company's violent provocations. With a crackerjack 
       ensemble cast--including James Earl Jones, David 
       Strathairn, Mary McDonnell, and Will Oldham--and Oscar-
       nominated cinematography by Haskell Wexler, Matewan taps 
       into a rich vein of Americana with painstaking attention 
       to local texture, issuing an impassioned cry for justice 
       that still resounds today"--Container.
