After watching the Pittsburgh Steelers dismantle the New
York Jets, it was time to find something to watch. When searching, I was in the
mood for something a bit different, as I am a bit tired after hiking with
Jillian in the Forbes
National Forest
Plot/ Through the experiences of two amateur Bigfoot
researchers in Appalachian Ohio, we see how the power of a dream can bring two
men together and provide a source of hope and meaning that transcend the harsh
realities of life in a dying steel town.
When I turned this on, I had no idea what to expect.
What I found was so much more than I could have expected. Sure, it really is not
a Bigfoot or Sasquatch research film, in fact, that is just a subtle backdrop
to the story. This one is clearly a documentary about friendship (although it
does quietly discuss how shady Tom Biscardi is in researching the subject). As a documentary fan, it was an interesting
break for me from the cryptozoological, horror or UFO related material I have
been watching. In the end, if you enjoy documentaries that look into the real
world of friendship and the strange world that draw people together, you may
enjoy it.
