I had never heard of it until last week, but when I was told that watching the 1991 documentary “The Dancing Outlaw” would change my life, I was skeptical. After seeing it this weekend, my life will never be the same.
The fact that is that Jesco White, the last of the mountain dancers, is for real, and has to be seen to be believed. That is all I can say. Just watch it, and it will be in your head for the rest of your life.
You can watch it on the internet here, and order the DVD here.
Jared,
I too have seen the Dancing Outlaw video. That guy is a crazy man. I couldn’t help but smile at some of the funny stuff he had to say. I was wondering if you have seen the companion documentary called Jesco goes to Hollywood? It documents his trip to appear on the Roseanne show in the 90’s. It isn’t as good as the first one, but it is pretty funny too.
