REGIONAL PREMIERE: Three Stories, One Highway. 'Deer Hunters' Wives' tells of the frustrations of Civil War tour guide Mandy, who obsesses on Jenny Wade, the only civilian killed at the battle of Gettysburg. While her friend June struggles with an Internet porn scheme to make extra money. 'What I Believe' focuses on a man who seeks the help of a Christian Scientist to heal his back pain and explain the Big Foot that chased him down the mountainside. 'Original Bill' is the story of a writer who buys a farmhouse in the country in hopes to find unique inspiration to write his novel. He is sidetracked by his Amish neighbor, who smokes, drinks, swears and watches his TV. Bill befriends her and helps her realize her dream of seeing a live play on stage.

I was lucky enough to see this film at its world premiere in Los Angeles last summer, in the Dances With Films festival. It is a very quirky story, with interconnected oddballs, and feels like a fun family film, despite its raunchy approach to some material. The performances are for the most part believable, but it's the situational comedy that develops which is the true star of the film. Another Putch gem from his now familiar ensemble of actors.
