Product Description

The documentary Greater Southbridge cuts right to the heart soul and funny bone of one small New England town's collection of colorful and offbeat characters. Watching these marginalized people go through their daily routines challenges and victories we see a mirror of our own problems and triumphs. Despite the economic and social issues the independent film touches on the real story of Greater Southbridge is how its four main characters become a reflection of the town and subsequently America itself. Jerry the stuttering can-collecting unkempt star of the film is the heart and the greatest expression of the town. Despite his obvious disadvantages he continues to be a positive force and inspiration on many levels within the community.System Requirements:Running Time: 84 MinutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: DOCUMENTARIES/MISC.

• Greater Southbridge Rocks!!
  A harrowing array of toothless prophets, minimum-wage morlocks, stew bums, and old-timers huddle together against the implacable sucking maw of ennui that pervades a Massachusetts city in decline. There is indeed truth in the heroin-fueled philosophies and right-wing ramblings of these characters. Greater Southbridge is a story of redemption, nickel and otherwise. (Keep your eyes peeled for the inexplicable cameo by Abe Vigoda at a Boston night club.) ...more info

  I accidentally caught Greater Southbridge at a film festival in 2003 (where it won the audience award) and loved it.
  
  GS is a documentary about life in a small Massachusetts town. It focuses on some of the odd, eccentric people who live there. The film's stand-out personality is "Jerry" who is passionate about recylcing aluminum cans and wants to start an all-girl band.
