I have seen this movie over a dozen times and just had to have this book. I love it too! I think every child should have a Karl!

Yes, I am one of those rare few people that has never seen the movie Sling Blade. As I am slowly but surely working my way down my list of movies I've yet to see I saw that this had a screen play. So obviously I had to read it real quick.

It was nice to be able to read it without knowing what the plot of the story was even thought it is 30 years old. I looked up the cast and I'm excited to finally watch the movie.
