One of the best kept secrets of the film is Gary Clark, Jr., the young 
man who plays Sonny.  Gary is a genuine blues guitarist and singer who 
plays locally here in Austin, and let me tell you, this man knows what 
he's doing.  I haven't seen the movie to know if he can act, but he 
plays guitar just like he's ringin' a bell, go go!
