American Reel is a 1999 drama film directed by Mark Archer and starring David Carradine, Michael Maloney, and Mariel Hemingway. The film is set in Chicago, Illinois, though primary filming locations included Fort Wayne, Indiana, Waterloo, Indiana, and Hicksville, Ohio. American Reel was shown on a double bill with Kill Bill: Volume 2 on December 8, 2011, at the New Beverly Cinema. Country singer James Lee Springer has just become an overnight sensation—after 20 years of trying to make it by playing every honky-tonk west of the Big Muddy. But after so many years of waiting and hoping,... the only question is whether it's all worth it. The DVD of the film contains interviews with the cast, and a behind the scenes gallery of photos.
