This film may be great, but it is a complete ripoff of Bill Forsythe's Comfort and Joy. c&j is one of the sweetest films I've ever seen without becoming diabetic.
It's OK if you do like it, but realize that EVERYTHING in this film is a direct rip-off.
The original is http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0087072 I can recommend almost anything by forsythe - Local Hero, Gregory's Girl, That Sinking Feeling. I better go rent some tonight. Local Has a young Peter Capaldi, and an old Burt Lancaster.
Unfortunately he's given up film-making after some really crappy Hollywood treatment. Sad.
