This was a sad and depressing sliver of a bigger story. I was hoping for a more complete, straightforward documentary on The Villages and what I got was overblown, over choreographed sad stories about a few individuals that didn't deserve this mess. To my eye, Mr. Oppenheim used these people to show off some fancy camera skills he learned in film school. The actual stories could have been told in 15 minutes, but we had to sit thru 15-second clips of water spigots and mocking shots of people for whom he seems to have some level of spite.
