check it out! movies


Not wanting to venture too far out into the lingering winter this weekend, I stayed in and watched a few videos. One, KENNY, was delightful! It's probably not for everyone (nothing ever is) and you might want to view it with the subtitles turned on because it takes place in Australia and the english can be hard to decifer at times. Kenny Smyth delivers porta-potties to events all over Melbourne and this is his story.
From the DVD case: "Hailed by critics as 'The Citizen Kane of romantic comedies about sewage'..., KENNY lifts the lid on one of Australia's roughest diamonds as he juggles family tensions, fatherhood and sewage with charm, humor and unflinching dignity. Part philosopher, part comedian and all heart, Kenny is living proof that in sewage, like life, the best will always rise to the top." One can't help but love this oversized "knight in shining overalls."
