Heartworn Highways
Guide to fast-forwarding
This is an important movie for Guy Clark fans. I believe it is the only video appearance that you can buy of Guy Clark. I got my copy at Amazon.com, where I gave it a 'too generous' 5-star review. There is some great stuff in this film, but also some very boring sequences. I made this chart up for my own amazement, but I thought it might be useful to others. See also Marq's Lone Star webstation for some reviews and such. Rhapsody Films now has some material on the web for it, too (just scroll down when you get there.)

Omaha Rainbow, Issue 15, had the following infomation:
Talking to Richard about the film, Townes said ....."Have you seen the movie that I think is dedicated to Dennis? I haven't seen it either. We did it last year, a year ago last winter. They just came and filmed us for a couple of days and it all happened at the same time as I started a big gig in Austin where we lived for a time. It was winter and they wanted to have a Seymour style barbecue where we lived, Seymour's house being famous for barbecues. He's this old black man, he was 82 at the time, and a real ham. A couple of friends and I tried to get a fire going. There were people driving past looking at us like we were nuts."
