	Salsola - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Salsola (Saltwort, Tumbleweed* or Russian thistle) is a genus of herbs, subshrubs, shrubs and small trees in the family Amaranthaceae, native to Africa, Asia, and Europe.
		In several annual species, those known popularly as "tumbleweeds", the plants break away from their roots in the autumn, and are driven by the wind as a light, rolling mass, scattering seed far and wide.
		Amusingly, tumbleweed is such a common symbol in Westerns, where it is used to indicate an abandoned area, that it is generally associated with the American Old West, and western films, despite its Russian origin.

		Tumbleweeds may seem like the ultimate loner plant, but in the future, they may cooperate with environmentalists to clean up toxic waste.
		And so we actually did a survey of probably close to 100, 150 plants, looking for what their background uranium values were at the end of the growing season.
		That's important because once tumbleweeds detach and start blowing in the wind, they become nuisances: they're able to spread their seeds for miles, and sometimes they even cause car accidents.

		Tumbleweeds, the classic cowboy comedy strip developed by Tom K. Ryan, sets the traditional Western on its head, gleefully mixing anachronisms, wild humor and reversed stereotypes.
		Ryan claims that Tumbleweeds is the result of his exclusive access to long-suppressed files on a secret corner of the Old West.
		Tumbleweeds was animated for Saturday morning television in the late 1970s, and in 1983 was the subject of a musical.

		What sets Tumbleweeds apart from other films about mothers and daughters is the frank and open relationship between Mary Jo Walker (Janet McTeer) and 12-year-old Ava (Kimberly J. Brown).
		Tumbleweeds is a sweet film with a rambling charm and raunchy sense of humor.
		The pair convey a remarkable intimacy and ease with one another that’s vital to Tumbleweeds, which shows that the often prickly relationship between a mother and daughter can also be the most important one of their lives.

	Tumbleweeds Movie Review at Hollywood Video
		The real deal is in Tumbleweeds, with English actress Janet McTeer disappearing into the role of a hardluck Southern belle.
		Her latest nightmare relationship implodes as Tumbleweeds begins and, as is her habit, Mary Jo packs 12-year-old Ava (Kimberly Brown in her film debut) into the car and sets off for a new life in a different town.
		But when she's rude to Jack, refusing to give him any kind of a break just because he's her mother's latest boyfriend, or is comforted by Mary Jo when her cherished pet mice are stolen, Ava remembers she's just a kid.

	TUMBLEWEEDS; Janet McTeer, Kimberly Brown, Gavin O'Connor
		Mama, Mary Jo Walker (Janet McTeer, Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Comedy), has dragged her now 12 year old Ava (Kimberly Brown) from husbands (3) to boyfriends (uncounted) since she gave birth when she was a teenager.
		Tumbleweeds opens with a scene startling in its primal verbal violence as Mary Jo taunts her current lover while he is on the verge of beating her because of his jealous rage and utter frustration prompted by her brazenness with other men.
		In fact, the director plays a boyfriend who cannot keep up with his new girls because he is just not emotionally and spiritually limber enough.

		Tumbleweeds is what would have been called a "little" film, long on character development and short on plot, but in a day and age when deeply etched characters are getting harder to come by, it qualifies as a definite landmark, especially in comparison with the similarly plotted but more sentimental Anywhere But Here.
		I first saw Tumbleweeds in 1999 when it was first released in the cinemas and I'll always remember it as one of the best films of that year.
		Tumbleweeds is a lovingly pragmatic little film that is just brimming with warmth, realism and humanity.

	Tumbleweeds (1999): Janet McTeer, Kimberly J. Brown, Jay O. Sanders, Gavin O'Connor - PopMatters Film Review
		The thing of it is, though, O'Connor's mother/daughter spin on the buddy movie reproduces a theme we've all seen before (most recently in Wayne Wang's Anywhere But Here): an irresponsible (read: wacky) mother is, effectively, the unstable child in the relationship, in need of parenting by (you guessed it) her stable, responsible daughter.
		Second, despite the fact that on many levels Tumbleweeds employs a well-worn formula, O'Connor does problematize the familiar story line and characters by bringing ambiguity to the stereotypes.
		The film opens with an argument between Mary Jo and the man she's living with (whether he's a husband or boyfriend is unclear, but also irrelevant as we quickly learn from Ava that he is just one in a series of men in Mary Jo's search for love and happiness).

		Unfortunately, such methods can fail in the face of wind shifts causing fires to miss control lines or to jump straight over them (for instance, because a burning tree falls across a line, burning embers are carried by the wind over the line, or burning tumbleweeds cross the line).
		Protection of life (those of both the firefighters and "civilians") is given top priority, then private property according to economic and social value and also to its "defendibility" (for example, more effort will be expended on saving a house with a tile roof than one with a wooden-shake roof).

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Tumbleweeds
		While working as a freelance commercial artist, cartoonist Tom K. Ryan developed an interest in the works of Zane Grey and other writers about the "classic" period of the American Southwest.
		In 1965, he created Tumbleweeds, in which he lovingly skewers the conventions and cliches of that genre as only a true aficionado can.
		The title character is a typical cowpoke, not too happy with his life in Grimy Gulch but not ambitious enough to do anything about it.

		In 1998, Scott Porter (vocals and theremin) and Kody Jackson (vocals and guitar) moved from Fort Worth to Denton "with the distinct purpose of playing in bands, trying to get started in the lifestyle of working musicians," according to Porter.
		There's alot going on with these 11 tracks, and Spitfire Tumbleweeds take you on a tour from the Rocking Stomp of Badlands part 2 to the timeless classic sounding Harvest Hymn.
