Set Decoration
Filmed in the coal country of West Virginia, "Matewan" celebrates labor organizing in the context of a 1920s work stoppage. Union organizer, Joe Kenehan, a scab named "Few Clothes" Johnson and a sympathetic mayor and police chief heroically fight the power represented by a coal company and Matewan's vested interests so that justice and workers' rights need not take a back seat to squalid working conditions, exploitation and the bottom line.
Art Direction
El adolescente Johnny Rourke (Aidan Quinn) es imprudente. Nacido en "el lado equivocado de la vida", quebranta la ley con igual frialdad con que rompe los corazones de las chicas. La animadora Tracey Prescott (Daryl Hannah) también es imprudente. Abandona su convencional vida y a su aburrido novio para seguir a Johnny en su peligroso camino.
