Review of Vernon, Florida (1981) by Luke A — 14 Mar 2013
If this had been directed by Harmony Korine and called "Gummo" critics would not be on its dick so much. Still, credit where credit's due -- not Errol Morris's best film, but if you look at it like a never-picked-up TV pilot (Morris initially scheduled "Vernon, Florida" to cover the area's rep for murder-induced insurance fraud) the more gonzo the town profiles get, the more they're -- not loved, exactly, or taken seriously, but.
..they're pondered. And that'll do it this far out there.
