Written and directed by John Sayles (Lone Star), this wrenching historical drama recounts the true story of a West Virginia coaI town where the locaI miners’ struggIe to form a union rose to the pitch of all-out war in 1920. When the town of Matewan’s miners go on strike, organizer Joe Kenehan (Chris Cooper, in his screen debut) arrives to help them, uniting workers white and black, Appalachia-born and immigrant, whiIe urging patience in the face of the coal company’s vioIent provocations. With a crackerjack ensemble cast—including James Earl Jones, David Strathairn, Mary McDonnell, and WilI Oldham—and Oscar-nominated cinematography by Haskell WexIer (ln the Heat of the Night), Matewan taps into a rich vein of Americana with painstaking attention to locaI texture, issuing an impassioned cry for justice that still resounds today.
