Reviews

"3.5 out of 4 stars. A loving, moving, inspiring, quirky documentary."
~ Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times ~

"Unbelievably special…a real and gripping story with insight and humor."
~ Al Gore, former Vice-President ~

"[The Real Dirt] offers one man's extraordinary life as a gateway to a larger history of tragedy and transition. It's an unflinching account of what farming takes — and, more important, what it gives back..."
~ Jeannette Catsoulis, The New York Times ~

"The film evolves into a deeply moving metaphor for the struggles of an entire generation. His triumphant story is essential for all of us city folk who have found ourselves despairing for the Earth and what has seemed like our inevitable alienation from it."
~ Mark Achbar, director, The Corporation

“The Real Dirt on Farmer John turns into a portrait of how American family farming could blossom for a new century.” ~Enter Weekly

"The Real Dirt on Farmer John examines 50-odd years in the life of its eponymous subject -- a most compelling character -- and in doing so literally provides the viewer with food for thought.” ~Variety

"Of interest even to those not particularly interested in the subject of farming.”- Hollywood Reportcard.

“…Outstanding Documentary..”~LA Times

“Effectively links the political and artistic rebellions of the '60s to the ecological movements of today, while mounting a strong case against the effects of today's agribusiness monoliths.”~Chicago Tribune

Description

Where the Red Fern Grows is the heartwarming and adventurous tale for all ages about a young boy and his quest for his own red-bone hound hunting dogs. Set in the Ozark Mountains during the Great Depression, Billy Coleman works hard and saves his earnings for 2 years to achieve his dream of buying two coonhound pups. He develops a new trust in God as he faces overwhelming challenges in adventure and tragedy roaming the river bottoms of Cherokee country with "Old Dan" and "Little Ann." The movie follows the inseparable trio as they romp relentlessly through the Ozarks, trying to tree the elusive "Ghost" raccoon. Their efforts prove victorious as they win the coveted gold cup in the annual coon-hunt contest, capture wily ghost coons and bravely fight a mountain lion. Through these adventures Billy realizes the meaning of true friendship, loyalty, integrity and heroics, in this timeless and poignant coming of age story.

Description

Every family is filled with stories. Some are dramatic: how Great Aunt Katherine saved the train while working at the telegraph, how Uncle Clyde survived the prisoner of war camp. Some are romantic: how Uncle Joe and Aunt Freda eloped on the night of the eclipse. They can be humorous: how little Cole was almost born in a field. They can be heroic: how Grandpa Webster single-handedly wiped out dog fighting in his home town. The value of stories is in how they give family members a sense of history, unity and belonging. Storyteller Jan Kinney will use personal stories to help audience members recognize their own stories. She'll also give participants the storytelling tools with which to tell them effectively.
