Rich Hall's The Dirty South

Just a quick post to say that I watched this excellent documentary from the droll comedian the other night. It explores how the American south has been depicted by various media, mainly focusing on Hollywood's negative stereotypes about the place.

It's well worth checking out, as anyone who saw his earlier Westerns film will know, and it further sets Hall out as a genuinely interesting writer on film, amongst other things.

The Dirty South can be viewed on the BBC iPlayer here (UK IP address needed) until 25th July 2010.

I recommend you do.
