I guess I could have slid this into the obscure movies category, but oh well. We found it a few years ago through Netflix and it's a family favorite. It's a small Australian film that Miramax brought over about a family that lives near an airport and their land is going to be taken by the government for airport expansion -- even the Aussies have eminent domain! They're a simple folk and it's got lots of the almost-subtle funny and it has a good message. For you lawyers, too, you have to see it to learn how to be a great lawyer from the bumbling idiot the family hires.

The only thing better than "Funniest Home Videos" is "Best of Funniest HOme Videos."
