be it ever so ....?, 5 July 2006
7/10
Author: TheatreX from Louisville, KY

A somewhat interesting look at 5 different family units and their homes, none of which are ordinary (the homes or the people). One Louisiana dude lives in a houseboat and messes with alligators for a living. An Illinois man lives in a electronic "house of the future" and has strange neighbors and lots of interest in the occult. A new-age Kansas couple live in a converted missile silo. A California couple live in a converted house that has been modified to accommodate their umpteen cats, complete with "catwalks" and tunnels in the walls, etc. And an elderly, also new-age woman lives in a tree house in a remote valley in Hawaii. She mentions that she sprained her knee swimming with the dolphins, who she also talks to. All right, then. This is not as interesting as the film maker's "American Movie" but it's still not bad and gives some interesting perspective on how people adapt their living environments. I particularly like the tree house and the cat house but I'm also glad that none of the people in this are MY neighbors. Despite the alligator thing the Louisiana guy comes off as the most "normal" of the bunch. Not a bad view for a rainy Sunday afternoon, 7 out of 10.
