You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Great casting thusfar. I love Juliette Lewis. Although I get the criticism of their choice to cast Aurora as Shana.

Change it one more time..

Nick Ashford was someone I greatly admired, had the honor of knowing, and was the real-life inspiration for Cowboy Curtis' hair. RIP Nick. - Pee Wee Herman

A Hollywood movie with an asian director. And people are surprised that casting a black character isn't at the top of their priority list?
