Junebug (2005)

Such a great movie, exploring themes like the "outsider" among regular "folks," as well as contrasting images of urban and rural American culture.  Oh yea, some (darkly) funny moments, as well  Definitely worth watching.

Plot Summary:

Successfull Carolinian George Johnsten meets Chicago art gallery holder Madeleine
at an electoral benefit art auction- love at first sight. Madeleine decides to meet a 
Southern original artist, so George seizes the opportunity to come along and present 
her to his South Carolina parents Eugene and Peg, drop-out brother Johhny and his 
high-pregnant wife Ashly. Confronting the outsider soon opens a can of worms as 
emotions revive or emerge, like admiration and jealousy.

Inbred Rednecks

A "B-movie" comedy not to be missed. Filmed on a shoestring budget in the hills and hollows of western NC (Madison County) this flick had it all; cockfighting, moonshine, Highland microbrews, and of course, plenty of "inbred" rednecks! It's not an easy film to find...I remember back in the day, you could buy it on VHS at the "Red Dot" market near the Forks of Ivy/Barnardsville, NC. Anyway, if you just want a mindless laugh, watch this movie!
