It was an important movie (and book) for its time and kickstarted the careers of numerous actors and actresses. It to some extent exgerrated small town Texas but I did not see the setting as corrupted, rather dreary. There were a lot of characters who tried to do the right thing with Ben Johnson in the best role of his career playing a very heroic part. Lot of truth in that movie and—being from rural Texas—was blown away when I first saw it.
