NATURAL BORN KILLERS

Matthew McConaughey got most of the attention for his riveting performance in HBO’s just-completed True Detective, but Woody Harrelson was excellent, too, and his reactions to his TV partner’s speeches and digressions were pivotal to the drama’s effectiveness. Here’s a chance to revisit the Oliver Stone film in which Harrelson proved he was so much more than a likable character actor from Cheers (though that, in itself, was a fine accomplishment). And one of the things that’s difficult to accept is that this violent, buzz-generating movie, co-starring Juliette Lewis, was released 20 years ago.
