Rio Youers does not disappoint. The Bang-Bang Sisters is like Most Dangerous Game meets Final Jeopardy. It takes some serious cunning to win. The Bang-Bang sisters are thrown into an impossible situation and make real-human heartbreaking choices, pitting love against truth and ethics all set against their own blood lust. The bad guys are outfitted as dumb Southern boys playing on all the stereotypes. Being a Southern girl myself, I've heard them all, and they seem to work for this story, especially when these boys have an ace up their sleeve. For the award-winning ending, Youers gives the very questionable Southern pride these bad guys covet a reason to lose possibly. It's good that these girls were not up against a traveling bible salesman as in Flannery O'Connor's Good Country People because some country folk might surprise you.
