Country Boys

In the movie Country Boys, several "country-ish" characters are introduced, two of which being Cody and Chris. While neither boy comes from a well-off family, Chris seems to be in worse financial shape than Cody. He lives in an extremely small trailer with his sister and mom, while Cody lives with a relative in a decent house. Neither boy is very smart, and they're both behind in school. It's sad because I never thought this type of thing actually happened, but apparently it does. What's ironic is that, despite Chris's poor economic situation, he seems to be the one who tries harder in school and shows more respect to his teachers and adults. Cody has "found God" and has a girlfriend, but if you ask me those are just two things he likes to flaunt because he thinks they make him look good. After seeing 45 minutes of the video Country Boys, it is safe to say that Chris is a more respectable individual than Cody.
