Tremendous film. I didn't always agree with Nolan, but admired his strength and courage, given his background and the difficult era of the times in El Paso and elsewhere.

Sometimes, it is good to talk about things and make people uncomfortable to eliminate the the things being talked about.

He was the highest paid Arkansas state employee at the time of his firing. Four million with incentives, a horse ranch, yah, he had it tough.

Nolan, if you had kept your mouth shut, you could have done so much more. Even Hall of Fame Running Back Jim Brown thought you behaved foolishly. Don't stick that poor black, pity me, crap in our face anymore. It really reflects badly back on you.
