I saw "All the King's Men" Friday night. Unless you grew up in the Louisiana area hearing the legends of Huey Long, you probably won't get it. The national reviews are pretty bad, and I can understand why. They claim that Sean Penn "overacted" his character, but that's just it - he didn't. Watch a Huey Long speech and you'll see that Sean Penn really nailed it, IMO.
