I know this isn't everyone's cup of tea but Sherman's March is utterly excellent. I forgot how good; it's been a while.
Sherman's March is a documentary about a young man attempting to make a documentary about General William Tecumseh Sherman's March on the South during the civil war, but instead gets continually sidetracked by various women.
This is a laugh out loud, poignant, funny, silly, ironic film. It's also 155 minutes, but it breezes by. I promise.
Sherman's March won the Grand Jury prize at Sundance in 1987.
