it seem a though pride and responsibility have leave director ross mcelwee long before his journey to find sherman . if he would have stick to the assignment and not be so self deprecate he may have have some success in his documentary and maybe even some in his life and we viewer might have actually learn something . instead he only succeed in be a creepy stalker school himself in unhealthy and regressive isolationism and cowardly fear of nuclear holocaust . these quality be equally reflective in his failed personal relationship that leave him to snuggle up with tick and mosquito in a tree house . the most we get from the movie be the satisfaction that we be not ross and that we have a bed indoors .
