10 MPH (2007)
10/10
Delightful

Warning: Spoilers
Part of this film's considerable charm is the apparent naivety with which Josh and Hunter embark upon this adventure. It seemingly never occurs to them that they will not achieve their goal. Even the stunning scenery plays second fiddle to this very human tale of giving it all up for a dream. The characters they meet along the way are fascinating, and offer some very interesting insight into rural life. My personal favourite, the group of bikers they run into, who offer their views on travelling at 10 miles an hour, and repair the segway when something breaks. Apparently you cannot truly know a thing until you break it and fix it yourself. The film is not in anyway preachy, and is an endearingly off-beat look at a journey, life in a very slow lane and how much can be achieved if you really put your heart into what you are doing. This is the very best kind of 'reality'… the real kind!
