BILLY BOB:  

Plot
The Bravo channel has been rerunning their exclusive documentary profile, BRAVO PROFILES: BILLY BOB THORNTON.  If you missed this opportunity to ride shotgun with Billy Bob to his boyhood haunts, keep your eyes peeled.  BRAVO PROFILES: BILLY BOB THORNTON features plenty of footage of Billy Bob returning to his roots in Malvern, Alpine, and Benton, Arkansas.  Angelina Jolie, Matt Damon, songwriting partner Michael Shipp, Harry Thomason, mother Virginia Thornton, producer Robert Salerno, studio executive Janet Yang,  producing partner Bruce Heller, Marty Stuart, and childhood pal/occasional co-star/furniture magnate Rick Dial (SLING BLADE, THE APOSTLE) all weigh in.  There are plenty of childhood photographs, pictures of Billy Bob's and Michael's band years, video clips of recent recording sessions in Nashville, and amazing demonstrations of Billy Bob's remarkable talent for mimicry.  Think he can only do a Southern accent?  Think again!  You'll also hear Billy Bob sing, see him chow down on all sorts of down-home cookin' that will send the tabloid rumors down in flames, and enjoy clips from ALL THE PRETTY HORSES, SLING BLADE, and other rare treats.  You haven't lived until you've seen Billy Bob in a formula one racing jumpsuit, crooning the blues.
