“High sheriff on my heels, I better be on my way,” sings Peg Leg Sam near the end of Born for Hard Luck — Peg Leg Jackson, the documentary about his adventuresome—and often death-defying life. The story of this street corner musician unfolds unbelievably as the numerous phases of his life construct a colorful, quilt-like tale. From medicine show performers (with footage of the Chatham County Fair in Pittsboro, NC) to dedicated moonshiner, Peg Leg Sam relates some of the most daring and exciting parts of his life with gleeful enthusiasm, often letting his harmonica contribute significantly to his story. Together they present a beautiful narration.
