January 1, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
Not a lot of new DVDs out this week, but I saw "An American Carol" in the theater and thought it was pretty funny. Even moreso because I know Michael Moore, and the film is sort of based on him.
An American Carol. An anti-American filmmaker who’s out to abolish the July Fourth holiday is visited by three ghosts who try to change his perception of the country. Based loosely on documentarian Michael Moore. [Official Site] [Buy It]
Towelhead. A young Arab-American girl struggles with her sexual obsession, a bigoted Army reservist, and her strict father during the Gulf War. [Official Site] [Buy It]
