The story so far
Everything you need before watchingAt Mac Bledsoe's funeral, the pastor calls him a dedicated husband, a loving father, a good American and a good Christian. Then the film cuts back: young Frank is forbidden to see the Lassiter boy. Mac threatens to kill them both, calls it perversion, and promises the lake of fire. The congregation returns to the Lord's Prayer. The eulogy and the old threat occupy the same pew.
