The Whole Shootin' Match: The King of Texas (Disc 2 of 2) (2008)
Filmmakers Rene Pinnell and Claire Huie pay tribute to Pinnell's uncle - Texas filmmaker Eagle Pinnell - in this affectionate documentary celebrating the Last Night at the Alamo director's unique brand of DIY filmmaking while simultaneously offering a cautionary tale about the pitfalls of alcohol and substance abuse. IN a little less than three decades, Eagle Pinnell managed to craft four feature films and one short in addition to contributing to the documentary Good Life. Despite the fact that Pinnell's films never received distribution and were rarely screened outside of a festival setting, his intimate tales of working class Texans proved that quality films could be produced from outside the Hollywood system, ultimately inspiring Robert Redford to create the Sundance Institute - a center where burgeoning filmmakers are encouraged to develop and produce films that are completely independent from first draft to final cut.
