    Tommy Lee Jones's earliest & best in a TV movie

    I remember when this movie was aired on television, this was and still is by far one of Tommy Lee Jones's best acting performance in any of his movie making career television or theatrical.

    GOOD MOVIE

    This is an old movie from 1989. It's a pretty true story about Gary Gilmore. Plot was very simple but the cast and the acting was great.
