In 1948, in rural Georgia, Coweta County is watched over by its legendary, indomitable Sheriff Lamar Potts (Johnny Cash). No felony had ever gone unsolved while Sheriff Potts was in charge. In the next county, though, there is a vast estate known as "The Kingdom." It's ruled by one man, John Wallace (Andy Griffith), whose power is absolute and beyond the law. But when Wallace chases one of his underlings to deliver ruthless punishment, he makes a critical mistake. He crosses over into Coweta County... Sheriff Potts' territory. This is the compelling true story of the man who ran the Kingdom, and the man who brought him down.

I’ve watched a couple of movies with Johnny Cash and not only was a great singer & song writer but a pretty good actor. 😊😊😊😊😊

Have you seen A Texas Murder? It may be A Murder in Texas. Andy is the main character, as is Sam Elliott. Farrah does her part well, as always. A top favorite. I also l9ve Texas Justice with Peter Strauss and my love, Heather Locklear. I recommend it.

I’m a 60 year old guy born in Montgomery, Alabama, raised in a small town outside the Capital City, and have vague memories of the 1960s when I was younger. “The Andy Griffith Show” was already in rerun syndication by the time I first knew of it. Vietnam was happening on TV, and when Johnny Cash was a star, his music was deemed “country & western”. It is truly strange to see Andy Griffith as an outlaw, and Johnny Cash as an LEO, despite him identifying himself in real life as a country music outlaw of the early 1970s.

Johnny Cash had a GREAT line early on about how, "What we have here is a man who THINKS he's ABOVE THE LAW. We're going to show him, HE'S NOT!!" This movie should be required viewing for all those in the Judicial system - EVERYONE from the White House, all the way down to the lone cop on the beat. Democracy would be better for that. It demonstrates how very depraved, corrupt & lawless a community can become, when a power-hungry man is enabled & allowed to retain & perpetuate that belief!! Lawmakers & those who uphold & enforce the law today should take note of the consequences of looking the other way when a friend, colleague or idol believes they're above the law & acts on that premise!!

@moorek1967 Ай бұрын

Democracy is nothing but mob rule. I don't understand why people can't figure that out. See, when the majority wins because of voting, we can end up with very bad laws because there are no checks and balances in democracy, just a bunch of people voting the same. The news is always saying "a threat to our democracy" but what they mean is that those who don't vote like them are evil. So they do whatever they can to lie, cheat, harass and use the media to get what they want. Might does not make right and mob rule is just the majority vote. That is not democracy.

Johnny Cash purchesed the rights to the movie. He respected Lamar Potts Jnr request that his father's memory be respected in the way he was portrayed and Cash did that. Posts Jnr gave Cash his father's pistol (which Potts rarely carried) as thanks for the sensitive portrayal. Sheriff Potts was respected for his community spirit, which is depicted here. June Cash played the psychic and had fun doing it.

Does anyone else see the Georgia parallels between 1948 and 2024? There’s something about the “The Kingdom” & John Wallace, along with the Sheriff and those 2 counties, that shows us the differences between Judicial vs Authoritarian rule.
