Good start, but then it gets ruined
Am i the only one who thinks........Average?
This film tells the story of a woman who fights hard against the city government taking her home for development by a private corporation.This is a poignant story, and it drives me to tears. I admire the fighters' dedication to fight for their homes. It is engaging and captivating.
I really enjoyed this movie and realize why putting a human face on a seemingly dry legal issue is so important. Am impressed that it came from a first-time director and will definitely see it again.
Saw this movie at the Santa Barbara Film Festival....and can't wait for it to come to LA. Wonderful performance by the amazing Catherine Keener. And the true story will hit you in the gut. Can the government take your property and just hand it over to a Fortune 500 company because they want more taxes? The Supreme Court says they can. Everyone needs to see this.
The movie deals with a significant social issue, the growing trend of municipalities abusing "eminent domain" to evict lower middle class people from the homes they own to hand the land over to big corporations, in the name of urban renewal. The movie suffers a bit from "TV movie of the week" syndrome, but it is well done and the issue is timely.The fact-based movie is grounded in one woman's story to save her home and her community. Toward the end, the movie goes a little too far afield in following irrelevant parts of her story rather than the main story line, but that's a small quibble.
