This movie had most things going for it: A great novel, fantastic scenery, skilled photography and a top notch score. Unfortunately the script, acting and direction is somewhat below par. Not by much, but more than enough to give this movie a TV-movie feel. Overacting, overexplanation, and trying too hard. Definately watchable, but kept me thinking what this could have been in the right hands...

During the fun scene (around minute 40:45) of beer fight between Lee and Jim she just started spewing beer at him without opening her beer but he twisted the cap off his beer and went after her. They didn't start making twist off caps on any type of beer bottle for much later.

Beautifully shot and entertaining enough but does not stand out as exceptional.

I enjoyed this independent film more than many recent big budget, heavily marketed films. While the narrative is a bit choppy, I got caught up in the potential experience of an oil prospector in early 20th century Texas. While you may not like the main character by the end of the movie, you will be able to better visualize some of the many challenges of life working in early Texas oilfields. Enjoyed the lead and supporting acting crew performances.

I'd read the book, which I loved. But knowing it was an independent film without an A-list star, I went in wondering if it could wow me. Wow! It's very good. Based on what's in the book, it could've gone with some really gratuitous nudity & sex, but instead got the point across tastefully. Friends who'v been around the oilfields say even the salty language in the beginning is tame compared to the real deal. Caveat: I'm an ordinary guy who often doesn't go with what the highbrow critics think. You be the judge.
