Summary: Good entertainment for the rest of the country, but for North Dakotans...
Comment: This movie is good entertainment for the rest of the country, but as a North Dakota native, the movie is a farce as far as the facts of the case are concerned. The movie also portrays rural North Dakotans as small-minded, racist morons which I didn't appreciate at all (for instance, the man in the trailer using the words "what in tarnation!).
However, a good movie as far as movies go with a first rate cast.

Summary: Compelling true story surrounding North Dakota gunfight
Comment: First rate dramatisation of the true story of anti-government activist Gordon Kahl and the deadly 1983 shoot out between Kahl (with fellow members of the Posse Comitatus ) & several law enforcement officers that resulted in the violent deaths of two lawmen. The bloody gunfight in Medina, North Dakota resulted in Kahl fleeing his injured son, and being pursued across the Dakota's for several months by FBI agents. The script is based around the well written book "Bitter Harvest", penned by author James Corcoran detailing the history of Kahl's fifteen year long feud with the US government for refusal to pay income taxes, his incarceration, and the tragic "Twilight Murders" at Medina in February, 1983.
Nuggetty Rod Steiger puts in a terrific performance portraying the hateful and rascist Kahl, and Michael Gross is equally impressive as the dogged FBI agent Mayberly trying to track down the violent Kahl before others are put in harms way. The effectively produced, "In The Line Of Duty" telemovies covering various real life crimes do tend to swing between outstanding and mediocre in their overall quality, however this one is easily one of the best of the series. Also check out "In The Line Of Duty : The FBI Murders" and "In The Line Of Duty : Seige at Marion".....both highly recommended.
