< As long as the Lynch family authorized all of it, I'd rush to go see it. Maybe get Barret Swatek to star as Jessica. She's a Southerner so she can do the accent, she's conservative, and she's an accomplished actress. >
Speaking as a West "by God" Virginian, I have to tell you that Jessica's accent (when you finally hear from her) will be "northern hillbilly" much the same as what you've heard from her family. Palestine is in northern WV near Ohio. I'd say the voice of Holly Hunter is more near what she will sound like. Here in WV we have less of a draw in our speech than southern as in ...say...Georgia. To New England it may sound like a draw in our speech. Make no mistake, we are proud of our hillbilly status. "Hillbilly" is all in how you use it.

Barret Swatek can adapt the accent she heard as an Alabamian to be Northern Hillbilly.

You tellem GOP!!! I am probably an hour maybe from Palestine...actually how far is that from Parkersburg WVA. Oh who cares!! I was born in WVA and work in WVA even tho I now live in Ohio...just a rivers width away and I LOVE West Virginians....I tell you what there is no one I'd rather have in a fox hole with me(I was saying that long before this war) if I had to fight. They may not be polished and they may have a hillbilly accent but they are tough and stick to their guns, and are good people. The story about Jessica is so amazing. I am a woman and can not imagine.

I don't know about the accent part. Her brother doesn't have one.
