Uplifting!
Joe starts out on a journey across america with just a cell phone and a camera man, and in the process meets with charicters both quirky and generous.
In a time where some people are begining to feel that life has gone sour, Joe, through his travels shows that the generousity of the human spirit is alive and well in america.
A feel good movie well worth a view.
Better Than "On The Road"
I'll grant that the setup can be a bit on the manipulative side - having a cameraman with you makes it much more likely that strangers will allow you into their vehicles for a 'ride share'. This is but a minor complaint. The genuineness of people along the way, reminded me of the best parts of the people who inhabit the Pacific Northwest, both my birth city of Seattle and Portland. People seem sincerely game for the experience and the movie will leave you in tears on more than a few occasions, whether it be the cancer stricken actress Mr. Garner helps, or his experiences witnessing Katrina up close (and the efforts to rebuild it), but mostly the final scenes when he returns home, richer for the 30 day experience. Highly recommend this.
Uplifting!! Definitely a must see
This documentary is a great way to be reminded of the good that is still in the world. There is so much sadness that we hear about every day, and it's rare to hear about the good that people do, so this was very inspirational to watch. I definitely recommend checking it out!
