Rutland, USA (2002)
The beauty of this film is it's simplicity
While sifting through the common trash on the New Releases wall at the movie store, I came upon this movie. I have always been a fan of indie flicks, and after seeing the fact that it was made for less than $1000, I decided to rent it.
What I got was the funniest, purest, most raw movie I have seen in a long time. First, the acting, though not polished, was a definite must to the flick as a whole. After all, most of these actors were the actual citizens from the small hick town that is Rutland, MA. They weren't acting as much as they were living and breathing on film as if it was another day.
The writing was a low-brow treat with jokes delived haphazardly, adding to the humor. Mr. McCracken, was a modern day Inspector Cleauseau with an "in-your-face" Massachusetts edge. And the ensemble that makes up the production company was quirky and, fortunately, did not overshadow the plain folk actors. Everyone blended in fabulously.
In any event, this movie ,at it's very core, is funny, pleasantly real, with a laugh almost every other minute.
If you aren't willing to take a chance on renting it, Ill send you the four bucks. . .cause you need to see this film.
