A moving movie!, 12 November 2004
10/10
Author: DaphneCharlotte-1 from CA

This movie grabs the viewer from the start. I have seen homeless people briefly and have helped them on occasion, never feeling threatened nor intimidated by anyone, but still feeling a little afraid. Seeing them and learning about their stories on screen gives me a completely different picture! Tommy Wiseau did a great job of portraying the homeless as well as the LA Mission Director, and the Chief of the Los Angeles Police Department, interspersed with candid improvised urban encampments which say a lot about the situation. The viewer is drawn in to imagining him or herself there in a way not felt before, even upon seeing these things in real life. This movie should be seen by everyone in America!
