I grew up in a small town like in the late 50's early 60's so these clips bring back very fond memories. My dad owned the drug store on main street which was a "morning before going to work" meeting place for the good old boys who mostly had grown up together. When my dad passed away the services were held in a large church which was filled to the max both inside and out. An amazing time to have grown up.
That love the poor woman was trying to show a give to Carl , is worth more gold. That most of us can comprehend. .. the reason is because how rare and pure it is and she in completely honest and sincere. You may not like the cover on the book , but the Value of the story that lives with in the. Story is beyound measure because the truth you can learn from it and the real and honest affection the story. Gives. I'm humbled by it.
"Hi Carl. I'm on my lunch break. These are on sale because they're not fresh..." LOL! One of my favorite lines. So hilarious but also so innocently sweet because she doesn't know any better, etc.
Can you help mee, too faind a naime, and singer ...laik the song .. name ..too on the end of the film ..!.THET SONG IS ON THE LAST 30 SECENDS....ON THE ... END OF PERFORMANS ....!l still tray ...bat l hawe not a lacky ...???
@@ErnestAng Apparently for the movie, they liked the song, but brought in more guitars to amplify the song. So I haven't found the "movie version" of the song with the extra guitar overlays.
The first time I saw this, in a theater, on a really rainy day, when the movie ended, no one moved. Everyone just sat there, stunned. All the way thru the credits, until the lights came on. Such an incredible film.
There is not a single thing a man can ever receive from another is a true warm loving heart from another as Carl here receives from Mylinda. She has nothing to give but her self and her heart .. And wether you're a Carl , or a Brad Pitt or whomever , if you have the opportunity to receive this love and friendship from a Mylinda , don't hesitate to pick it up because there is a wonderful thing about to happen. The love of two people whom have never been loved before , and it's a magical and non describable thing and feeling . For it comes from God Who loves us all . Even those that are not loved , he give to them also equally that love until we understand that it's the one thing that cannot be broken.
@@laniejuanitawhitehurst1624 yep that's how I got one of my jobs and I actually loved it they payed a decent wage but they got around the extra money issues by not having us on any payroll and just payed us under the table ... Never shorted my pay and was always on time with the cash so I never had a issue
That's sweet. I broke up with a guy after 2 years because he wouldn't make any kind of commitment to me. He "didn't know what was around the corner" which said to me he was just marking time with me until something better came along. THAT hurt.
Seen this movie 1 tine as a kid.. And never was scared of Carl. Not even for the killin he did at the end... Sometimes the good is here in ways we cant understand.
@illmaddox91 Yeah... ol' Bill Cox had me rolling on that one, too😂 And Scooter's (in)ability to see the forest for the trees is definitely it's own thing🤭
this movie is so real,,, everyone is beautiful in their own way my Mother told me that as a child,,,,, so beautiful ....the music--- the acting,,,,, real people like in the middle of nowhere in a time ??? a lost decade,,,,, characteristics of the 70s 80 and 90s
After Carl went back to the hospital for killing that guy, Melinda visited him often. Two years later Melinda convinced the Judge to let Carl be released into her custody. They've lived happily ever after since then, and she still brings flowers to him at the shop on occasion.
When I was a teenager I’d watch this movie and think it’s was the funniest thing I’ve ever seen, seeing it as an adult I realize who deep this movie really is.
Simple People- Love shines through. No expectations, loneliness can be the worst pain when to have so much to offer... even if it is truly platonic. People could learn a lot from these two.

Darling I bought the whole cd for one tune this one.... by Bambi Savage love it..yes a one of a kind movie... thanks Bambi for the most sweetest song ever for this part of movie... NOT TO MENTION I'M A MILKAHOLIC💯💯💯❣
How this movie manages to be slightly horror slightly comedic slightly heart warming equally bittersweet mildly disturbing well also super adorable well also stepping into almost every genre that comes to mind this movies flawless
This was such a good movie when it came out still is I remember watching it and I couldn't believe it was Billy Bob Thornton he really made a dramatic transformation I'd say go to your local video store and rent the VHS but I don't know where you'd even find it nowadays LOL
It's the nuances in the writing that won Thornton an Oscar for screenplay. Karl offering not one but two "common ground" comments (blister sympathy and his thoughts on flowers) to someone just to be nice is a really big deal for him, and makes us like him even more.
Ol’ Bill Cox is played by Rick Dial, a terrific southern character actor who died too soon in 2011 while filming “Bernie,” a Richard Linklater masterpiece. Dial perfectly plays the funeral home director in that film, which is dedicated to his memory.
Sling Blade is the perfect balance of disturbing scenes, dark comedy, and tender little moments like this. It's flawless
A masterpiece.
Absolutely perfect
The world became right when Carl happened upon Bill Cox's outfit.
Perfect
I swear one of the funniest things I have ever seen in a movie is the bit where Karl comes in on Doyle at night randomly holding a hammer

Damn lmfao 😅😅😅
2009 called ... They want their joke back 😅😅😅
Karl and Melinda, one of the most romantic movie scenes.
I felt bad for Melinda because I don't think she felt appreciated by Karl. She wanted a little more from him that he just couldn't give.
Carl had more morals and discipline than most people.
Yeah, besides the whole murdering his mother and her lover thing.
"Hi Carl. I'm on my lunch break. These are on sale because they're not fresh..."
LOL! One of my favorite lines. So hilarious but also so innocently sweet because she doesn't know any better, etc.
Yes she is. Not that theres anything wrong with it.

Sweet together, aren't they?
@@joel8583 yes bigtime
💐💐💐
Scooter and Bill fixated on Karl and Melinda's conversation like somebody screamed "Worldstar!" 😂
Lmao this comment is amazing
This movie is so precious, just a wholesome heartwarming movie
She cute. This movie has so many amazing scenes .
I wish Carl & Melinda had more time together.
She went on to become a serial killer and spent her final years with Carl at the State Hospital.
I'm surprised they didnt pursue that relationship in this film.
Unfortunately Wade being a psycho cut that short.
Bill Cox seems like a good man to work for thank you for your kindness Mr Cox
Get some hard candy and some magazines to keep ya busy
That little thumbs up Bill gives to Carl 😂
There is not a single thing a man can ever receive from another is a true warm loving heart from another as Carl here receives from

For it comes from God
Who loves us all . Even those that are not loved , he give to them also equally that love until we understand that it's the one thing that cannot be broken.
I was on board until the god nonsense.
The soundtrack and score behind these scenes are unbelievable 😭
Such beautiful and sad movie.
Pardon my language ma'am and the thumbs up. The boss sure was in Carl's corner.
Wish they still made these kinds of moves Again. One of the best.
Bubba, I see you are a Slingblade fan. My nephew was Brent Briscoe. He played Scooter in this clip. Unfortunately, Brent passed away in 2017.
Scooter made me laugh. Sorry for your loss
It will always be a movie ingraved in our hearts.......Masterpieace....period.
This is one of them movies that is like magic …. Love it no matter how many times I watch it
I tear up everytime. He just doesnt know what to do with feelings
They totally banged in the lawn mower shop. The original script had a five minute sex scene but it was cut during post production due to its length.
This is poetry to my eyes. Thank you.
One of my favorite movies and must have seen it at least 25 times or more !! ❤️🥰
Amazingly Sling Blade was filmed in just 24 days in Benton, Arkanas. It cost $1.2 million to make but it made $34.1 million at the box office.
Some low budget movies became classics, Easy Rider filmed for boutique $500,000.
Love how a “lawn mower” repair shop has two people that don’t know which way to push one.
Makes Carl look like Einstein.
Too common in many places. The owner grabs the cheapest workers he can get because the money is in selling new mowers not repairing old ones.

Welcome to Middle America, brother.
Shoot, you let a woman bring me some unfresh flowers she got for $2.69 and we're getting married that same week.
Amen brother.

One of the most magnificent flicks ever

The legendary history of Hollywood movie making has produced only one perfect movie. This one.
Hahah omg yes! "Flowers is perdy." So cute!
"God damnit scooter come on!" 😂😂 Man i love sling blade
@illmaddox91
Yeah...
ol' Bill Cox had me rolling
on that one, too😂
And Scooter's (in)ability to
see the forest for the trees
is definitely it's own thing🤭
Carl shoulda ordered her some french fried potaters. Mmhmmm
Reckon he mighta sat there n ate em with er, uh hm.
this movie is so real,,, everyone is beautiful in their own way my Mother told me that as a child,,,,, so beautiful ....the music--- the acting,,,,, real people like in the middle of nowhere in a time ??? a lost decade,,,,, characteristics of the 70s 80 and 90s
Doyle was very beautiful 🤣🤣🤣
"Well now that we r alone let's go in the back and I'll check your oil." Carl
This movie always makes me smile.
This scene puts tears in my eyes.
Great soundtrack,
' don't forget the milk ' 👌
Angelina Jolie has nothing on this chic.
What about Julia Roberts? He dated her.
Lol I like the way you talk mm hmm
She must have fixed some good taters mm mm!
Ain't it the truth?! Lol.
@FSU2001 no kidding, Angelina got her own integrity.
The hair flip was perfect.
After Carl went back to the hospital for killing that guy, Melinda visited him often.
Two years later Melinda convinced the Judge to let Carl be released into her custody.
They've lived happily ever after since then, and she still brings flowers to him at the shop on occasion.
I'd like to think that Carl was eventually released.
Failing that, Frank visits him often at the state hospital and he turned out alright.
Forgot about how good this movie is!
When I was a teenager I’d watch this movie and think it’s was the funniest thing I’ve ever seen, seeing it as an adult I realize who deep this movie really is.
Greatest movie ever....
Do you know last scene ..on the end of the film ....who sing a song and name of tham !???I TRAY TOO FAINDE ...BAT I HAWE NOT A LACKY????
I agree. A masterpiece.
This plus; Cool hand Luke..
It's go to show thers "somebody for everybody".......just beautiful
They don't make movies like this anymore, great film. 🎥
We need more Carl in this world
Amen! ❤️
Yes we do. Some Melinda wouldn't hurt either.
Simple People- Love shines through.
No expectations, loneliness can be the worst pain when to have so much to offer... even if it is truly platonic.
People could learn a lot from these two.
it takes a damn fine actor to "become the role".. great job Mr.Thornton..
The one love story in the movies I had really hoped had worked out in the end. 😘😘😘😘 Melinda
I love how he got the kid out of the barn, something his dad might have done to get him to come out of the shed
Billy Bob nailed this part ! He was a real goof in this!!! Lol
Blisters sure can hurt..flowers are pretty I've always thought that.. lol
Billy Bob Thornton played that role 2 a tee I looooovvvveee it 😀

Now that's a match made in heaven.
Damn good movie, hands down.
Karl just slaying it there.
I guess there's someone for everyone.
Of course there is!
On the contrary
Nope...
I'm sure there is with 7 billion people on Earth. Be like finding a needle in a haystack though.
It's the mellow song with the scenes that makes this perfect lol

Anyone have the clip of Melinda spilling out the Maureen Ledbetter gossip; that was funny as fuck
I didn't know a cute little orange kitten was in this movie! 3:59
Thank God there was no sex scene..
Poor Carl would sound like Popeye on helium and Melinda like a wounded seal.
@@DwayneHicks426 LMAO!!!!!AHAHAHA OMG
HHHHHHMMMMMMMMM!!!

Flowers sure is pretty.

Plot twist. Carl tought that kid how to drive, and the Sling Blade movie exists in the same universe as the Fast And Furious movies.
Also, see the arm on Carl? Taught that kid how to throw a football too. So well that Carl ended up coaching the HS football team.
A man shouldn't be alone all the time.
Amazing performance.
This song by Bambi Lee is just perfect for this scene. I asked my daughter to learn the song with her guitar. She did.
Still a better love story than Twilight
(Sorry, I had to go there)
you are so full of Devlin

Beautiful....💐💐💐
1;48 has the greatest eye roll in cinema
Great movie
You check them points?
Bill Cox is played by character actor, Ron Dial. Check him out in the movie BERNIE with Mattew McCoughney and Jack Black. RIP Mr. Dial.
And in Crazy Heart, with Jeff Bridges (and again, Robert Duvall!)
The most wonderful guy ever is that lawn mower shop owner
When you look at the items on that dinner table, with the exception of the wine, everything came from Hoochie's Dollar Store! Humm huh!!
Hi Carl, these were on sale cause they're not fresh... lol
We have the whole cast right here in this little town I live in in southeast Ky.
I don't know how they filmed this scene without busting out laughing! lol.
Sweet moment 💕
That ol Hal at the dollar store she guve em to me for a walking with her. Lol
Why tf is Sling Blade not available for streaming ANYWHERE⁉️.. it’s So annoying😤😭😩
It's all about the money.
Carl’s ice cold.
