Thanks! I'm not sure our lack of reenactments stems from a high level of respect for Pusser or simply a fear that we'd all grab our baseball bats and end up in the hospital! I have not seen the other Walking Tall movies (or the remake with The Rock), but they seem to be universally considered inferior to the 1973 film.
Such a great story! I wonder if you didn't re-inact Pusser's swinging because it was a real person vs something that was "just a movie"?
Looking at IMDB, there were two more Walking Tall movies based on Pusser's life (though I like that the movie intro said "suggested by" - is that looser than "based on"??) - did you see either of the other movies?
