Clearcut

Documentary about a clash of cultures. The small town old-timers don’t like it when the big city outsider moves in and asserts himself. So, they play the money card, and the kids are caught in the crossfire. I saw this in a small screening with the director, so we could ask him questions and such – that was pretty cool. It was really well done, and thoroughly explores the issue without really finding any good answers… kind of like real life – things are just kind of left in a continuous state of being unresolved. Anyway, the movie is a good metaphor even if you’re a world away from rural Oregon.
