Two recent movies came immediately to mind upon reading this fine essay. The first one is, 13 Minutes, and the second movie is, Vengeance. Both of which deal with in some way or another many of the things you discuss especially with regards to rural life. Below are links to the movies as they are available via YouTube, both are also the last I know from earlier this summer available via Netflix, or Paramount/Showtime. They are both well worth watching.
Thank you. And I will pass these along to Rupert as well. Thank you!

Thank you for this essay, crystal clear and written in the service of understanding rather than outrage—all too rare these days.
You're most welcome -- and thank you so much for the comment. I'll let Rupert know what you wrote.
