This was a po' boys "Pure Country". Looks like Mellencamp decided to make a movie around the time his buddy George Strait did. The result, unfortunately, was a boring look at small town America where the folks act a lot like their big city brethren. It was just a big yawn concerning husband and wife problems, with Mellencamp continually pushing his lank hair off his rather apish forehead. The boy needs to stick with what he is good at, whatever that is - it sure isn't singing.
