Critical scene. "My Daddy'd kill Doyle if he knew he was hurting Momma." The Boy needs a Dad to step up and make him, and his Momma, safe.

Failure would mean abject shame, and thus Not an option. Doyle's fate was sealed in this scene. POWERFUL STUFF! ~TD, Boston
I used to call my ex Linda while we were together, she knew better than to talk to me like that when I was hurtin, I told her don't make me knock the piss outta you.
It's too bad that Sling Blade killed that guy before he could impart some of his knowledge of fixing small engines to that little boy. I bet that skill would have really given him an advantage when he entered the workforce.
Well, he did leave him with his books. I don't know if there were any books on small engines, but I remember he said there was a book on carpentry...which is a great skill to learn. So in a way he did leave him with a bunch of knowledge in the books he always carried around.
The characters in the movie make the movie gripping. The movie remarkable. The ending I love the ending. Carl give up his life to help the family. The boy and his mom.
I find it awesome that a twelve year old kid named Lucas black can hold his own against the likes of Billy Bob Thornton, Dwight yoakam, John Ritter, Robert Duvall, and J. T. Walsh in a movie as awesome as sling blade.
Many dont know this but Karl and Frank are friends and actors in this movie, but also 8 years later, in 2004, they would be actors on the movie Friday Night Lights, with tThorton as Coach Gary Gaines and Frank (Lucas black) as Mike Winchell. What an epic actor combo.
When I first saw Lucas Black on NCIS NOLA, I saw him make almost the exact expression he has here at 0:17 and I thought instantly of the kid here in this role. I didn’t know he was the same actor all grown up until I checked IMDb, lol. Love this movie.
thinking about the deceased father makes me a bit depressed, its really sad when someone thinks of themself as inadequate even though all the people they matter to are perfectly happy with what they provide, I can say from experience it's sad from both sides. It's not about the money or the bills, its not about the size of the house or the age of the car, its not about what luxuries and privileges can be afforded, the only thing that matters is that they're around. Don't worry too hard, in a few billion years the sun will have exploded and burned away most everything out to the asteroid belt and the only thing that will matter is that we loved one another.
If only we could retain the childhood innocence Frank demonstrates, and judge people based on how they treat others, rather than learned prejudices, fear and ignorance. The world would be a vastly better place.
He wasn’t from deep in Mississippi, he was from Independence which is way up there between Southaven and Senatobia. My hometown was actually deeper & I do remember my best friends son talked just like the kid in Sling Blade.😝
is it weird that even though i have never seen this movie in my life, that i instantly recognized Lucas Black even though hes around 10 years old here. it probably helped that i've seen Tokyo drift over 10 times
This whole movie had to come from experience. It's too real to just get thought up. I've been in that kids shoes. Doyle is exactly like a guy that wants to be with the mother, but despises the kid. Very common.
What you find "funny" about the character was the result of being completely isolated in childhood and being brutally beaten, both by his father and the world. The character represents very real people who've only known pain and loneliness their entire lives
Billy said something in an interview I saw, that reminds me of this thread. "..I have chosen to live my life in this business is by telling personal stories, rather than broad sorts of stories. Because if you tell them,"This movie is about racism, so we want you to come see it. We have this huge 98 million dollar movie and all the big stars are in it. And we're gonna talk to you about racism." The racists won't come see it. But the racists will go see Sling Blade. Because they just think it's about some goofy guy and they love it! But subliminally, I think they get something." There is some comedic value to it. I mean we've all laughed over his voice and his lines from the movie. But the movie itself is really quite dark and serious. I just rewatched the movie, first time in a while...and I kinda felt like crying after it really. Some good dialogue in this scene. Even though this isn't the full scene shown here. After this video ends they talk about the little boy's dad who committed suicide and he asked Karl if he really killed someone. And the boy says,"My daddy was good. I think too many good people die. That's what I think." Then Karl's head kinda goes down like he's thinking about what he just said. And I think about that conflict going on possibly inside of Karl's mind and him having to grow up after he killed his mom and Jesse. It's sad and fucked up...and honest.
You shouldn't have done that. He's just a boy, poor little feller....
nandoanalog "this came outta you,you just left it in the trash can?"
Wow he can really express himself ........Impressive
Cheapskate lol
I don't think it's for using i think it's just for lookin through
Hmmm mmm
This kid should have an Oscar .
He just a boy.
cuninglinguist Yer shouldn't 'er dun dat
Now he’s on CSI New Orleans
Hes in tokyo drift
Look up the movie flash
The kid grew up and became the drift king in Japan.
yessir
He was also in the movie "Legion."
Then joined NCIS in New Orleans
And he appeared again in FF8
Poor little fellar
Whoever that kid is, he nailed these lines !!
i agree
He's now an adult and stars in NCIS New Orleans
Tokyo Drift
El Padre con Verga Larga he was tryna get that 'ole (oil)
I agree Lucas Black has always been a talented actor. He still is a fine talented actor in NCIS New Orleans♥️🧢⚾ and other movies
Probably the sweetest most endearing acting I’ve ever heard. And I agree with the boy.
Billy Bob was fantastic in this role. Deserved the Oscar for it!
He wrote and directed it, too.
Critical scene. "My Daddy'd kill Doyle if he knew he was hurting Momma." The Boy needs a Dad to step up and make him, and his Momma, safe.

When my son was born, I told my wife he ain’t no bigger than squirrel using Carl’s accent! It made her mad 😆
I used to call my ex Linda while we were together, she knew better than to talk to me like that when I was hurtin, I told her don't make me knock the piss outta you.
Y'ought not talk that way, he's just a boy mmmmm
I just laughed so hard at this lol ty
ROTF
I did the same thing. Doctor laughed and asked if I would like some French Fried Potaters
Billy Bob should have won the Oscar for this role.
he made the whole movie
Omar Quintero billy

How did he not i thought he did
Absolutely!!!
*"YE SHUNNA DUNG DAT, HIS JUST A BOI POOR LIL FELLER"* Eric Cartman
That's why am here 😂
Everyone focuses on Billy Bob in this movie, but that kid is a seriously talented actor.
"yous just a boy" may be simple but that line is one of my favorites because of how much Karl wants Frank to keep his innocence
"Yew shouldn't-eh done dat yer jist a boy"
Andrew Vickers south park brought me here
MostDope513 Same here; though I've watched it once before South Park made a reference of it.
"Poor little feller"
"there's plenty of time for the other". Great line.
This was the saddest scene in the entire film. An awful lot to have to carry around for such a young boy.
It's too bad that Sling Blade killed that guy before he could impart some of his knowledge of fixing small engines to that little boy. I bet that skill would have really given him an advantage when he entered the workforce.
It ain't got no gas in it
Small engine repair can be mastered with a book and a summer full of weekends. Whether or not the boy has a gift for it is far more important.
@@negativeindustrial Sounds like you know a fair bit about small engines!
That's funny...both ways.
Well, he did leave him with his books. I don't know if there were any books on small engines, but I remember he said there was a book on carpentry...which is a great skill to learn. So in a way he did leave him with a bunch of knowledge in the books he always carried around.
This was an amazing movie. Billy Bob Thornton did an amazing job in this movie.
"How come her to still bein' girlfriends and all with him if he's mean to 'er?"
--- that there is one profound question, Karl.....
Brilliant question
Had to listen to that three times to piece together what he said, but yes, a good question.
That's as common as mosquitos in the south. Women like Doyle for some reason, and he isn't even the worst.
This scene was funny and I don't mean like "being a queer" funny, I mean like "ha-ha" funny
Thanks for the clarification
***** he was copying the joke from the scene just now
Daniel Valdez Yeah...no shit, Dan.
He sure is nice though.
Lol, Clover Field’s avatar fits that response.
The characters in the movie make the movie gripping. The movie remarkable. The ending I love the ending. Carl give up his life to help the family. The boy and his mom.
OMG thats the guy from Tokyo Drift...lol.
You beat me here.. Tokyo Drift.. Lmao..

This movie is too brilliant. It's unfortunate Billy Bob hasn't written/directed anything on nearly the same level since.
Right. All this good work, and then years later we get a terrible Bad News Bears remake, and Bad Santa 🤦🏼♂️
@@andrewhatcher2702 Astronaut Farmer is my favorite film
BAD SANTA was a damn good movie! But he didn't write or direct. A lot of people liked THE GIFT and ALL THE PRETTY HORSES.@@andrewhatcher2702

And he was one hell of a quarterback on Friday Nights when the lights are on
Here because of South Park

I love how the little boy even though some of his words were "offensive" were said with good intent by the young actor.
He's just bein' honest
I didn't hear anything offensive
I like how Karl tries to steer this kid right.
It’s always struck me how much the boy understood without even having the words to express it. They won’t make a movie like this nowadays, man.
The boy’s got some surprisingly progressive views, given his upbringing.
Reckon ya might end up one of them old cucks raising some other feller's childrens that way.
Mmhmm.
Cartman brought me here
You shouldn't have done that, he's just a boy. 😂 Poor little feller.
The acting in this movie...is just unparalleled.
Lucas black. Hell of a little actor. He nailed this man!!!! ✌️✌️

Every character on this movie deserved an Oscar.
Love this kid! he played Jeep in Legion. Loved that movie, too! ❤
Yes! Can't forget Sean from Tokyo Drift!
Also Mike Winchell in Friday Night Lights. He was great in that one and Billy Bob played his Coach.
how the hell was Lucas Black 13 or 14 when this was filmed, he looks like he was 8.
That’s ironic considering when he starred in Tokyo Drift he was 26 but he looked 35

@@maggotbitch it’s just facts. It’s not helped by the fact that his TD character was supposed to be 17

I watched Tokyo Drift so many times before I realized he was just a boy.
Fun fact: This boy moved to New Orleans when he growed up. Became a police officer with NOPD and eventually became an agent for NCIS.
This is the greatest film of all time.
love these two for sure .....so heart breaking on both parts ..
BFF
Ever since I saw this movie early 2000s I haven't been able to stop intimating Karl.
"he's funny not funny ha,ha"
Terrific acting by the boy.
This part makes me break down every time. I love Karl to death.
If only we could retain the childhood innocence Frank demonstrates, and judge people based on how they treat others, rather than learned prejudices, fear and ignorance.
The world would be a vastly better place.
God damn this made me cry and laugh all in 2 minutes what a great movie
This is in my top 5 favorite movies of all time.
He wasn’t from deep in Mississippi, he was from Independence which is way up there between Southaven and Senatobia. My hometown was actually deeper & I do remember my best friends son talked just like the kid in Sling Blade.😝
is it weird that even though i have never seen this movie in my life, that i instantly recognized Lucas Black even though hes around 10 years old here. it probably helped that i've seen Tokyo drift over 10 times
"You oughht not talk like dat ya jeeest a boy"
This is one of the best acting jobs I have ever seen Billy bob doing sling blade (Carl) and heath ledger doing joker
That boy turned out ok, even went to Japan and raced..err.. drifted cars.
You shouldn't of done that, he's just a boy
Thank you
Clover Field Eric Cartman 😁
🖕🖕🖕fuck you
@@chrisvialpando2499 ?
Saw the kid and thought, that looks a lot like Lucas Black. Well damn, it is. Recognized him immediately.
Great acting by the boy.....
He plays on NCIS New Orleans now,
Ole Man im ded
Great ending to a great movie
He's so innocent
Didn't know the drift king played in this movie :D
....Are you ready for this, Mike?
Karl sounds like everyone on CB Radio Channel 6
Billy Bob Thornton is a genius.
Soon he will grow up and go to Japan. Some will say he is destined to be a king. The Drift King.
He also plays in "U Turn".
Crazy that this kid ended moving to Tokyo and drifting whips like crazy
Him and Billy bob starred in Friday night lights together too. Another good movie
That kids the quarterback from friday night lights. And ironically the coach from friday night lights lol
Cant believe this kid grew up to be tokyo's finest drifter! Also first guy to run an RB swap in a mustang 😎
South park brought me here.
Scruffy The Janitor brought me here.
do u know what episode???
It was season 5 episode 8 :o
Nova lol me too buddy. time for me to post a troll of a message, hopefully it will wind some ppl up lol
Oh no no the furries got blitz
I think sling blade 2 will be a box office success, wish they would make it happen.
Dang I just realized the kid plays Mike winchel in Friday night lights
Carl should sing the chorus from the Leo Sayers/Roger Daltry hit "Giving it all away", where it goes "he was just a boy uh huh giving it all away"
Karl's about to bust a spring, and ya know he's already off balance
I've never seen this movie before or knew anything about it but I knew right away that kid was Lucas Black.
This whole movie had to come from experience. It's too real to just get thought up. I've been in that kids shoes. Doyle is exactly like a guy that wants to be with the mother, but despises the kid. Very common.
He went from Family problems to drifting around Tokyo
That kid just made every millennial's head explode... told the truth.
Great movie
Something tells me that little feller will be the Drift King of Tokyo some day
Cant make this scene today😂
Its a crime that the music was taken out of context
From terrific child actor, to tokyo drift. Lucas Black was great. "Can he drive?"
Love.. that movie! Congrats BBT🤝👏👏👏👏👏
Best story ever. Love, Billy
"That's thaton' on Christmas i's tellin' ye' bout"..
this is like homer
poetry
it's told jus lik dat
Two great actors
Karl is correct. Kids shouldn't have to worry about thing like killing and death.
Then Karl studied football and moved to Texas with Frank some years later. They almost won the title with Permian some say.
What a transformation.
I was surprised to find out that Frank was played by the same actor who played as Sean in fast and the furious Tokyo drift
I believe the kid is an actor still. I think he was the main character in Fast and Furious Tokyo drift.
Was this scene shot in front of a green screen? the background looks off...
Wtf can't unsee it now
i swear...this clip brightens my day....lol...yoooo slingblade is the funniest...its up there with Forrest Gump...lol
funniest?
