Harlan County War (2000 TV Movie)
7/10
No option for hearing impaired
25 August 2023
While I was excited to watch the film I was disappointed that there was no option for subtitles. I had my hearing aid adjusted as well as the audio on my TV but missed 90% of the dialogue particularly the higher pitched, nasal twangs.

From a background of West Virginia I really wanted to enjoy this film. I know the history of the miners' strikes and Appalachian hardships...while the producers were sure to add Spanish language they ignored subtitling for hearing impaired viewers. Since this site values length rather than quality I suppose I need to relate how my grandfather was born in Wheeling VA before it even became West Virginia . Thank yoiu.
