Review of A Mighty Wind (2003) by Tony H — 25 Jul 2009
The first hour of A Mighty Wind creates an entire fictional isolated folk history, with the last half hour creating nostalgia for it. If you think about that, creating a nostalgia for something that the viewer was only just introduced to, it's a pretty fantastic feat.
The humor was subtle and, while not being unfunny, it doesn't elicit more than a grin more often than not. This is what all mockumentaries should aspire to--the characters were quirky but not totally displaced from a real world.
