"HOME MOVIE"

Keeping on the subject of documentaries, we have "Home Movie" by Chris Smith. Mr. Smith is probably more known for his other documentary "American Movie", but "Home Movie" has it's share of memorable moments and should be discussed among the unique documentaries of the past 10 years. Like "American Movie" this film captures all the weird but loveable people only America could produce. Here we get to see five of the good ole USA's most unique homes. There is an alligator wrangler who lives on a houseboat in Louisiana, an older woman living in a treehouse located in Hawaii, a man who invented everything in his home - automated rooms and such, a couple who live in a cat home, and finally a family that developed their home in an underground missile silo.

Although every one of these homeowner's seem to be insane they are also interesting and living out what they believe to be the "American Dream". This film honestly creeped me out at moments, but it was also hilarious and dare I say heartwarming? These people definitely live outside the box and it makes you wonder what everyone else would do if they weren't so caught up in being a typical member of society. In the end this is a short and fun film. Everyone can enjoy this film, definitely A-CAP backed.
