Funny thing.  After I read this tread and watched the trailer, the next time I turned on Netflix (on my smart TV), it suggested I watch Still Mine...  is this an episode from the Twilight Zone...  The TV knows what I'm thinking  ;)

I live in a 150 year old farm house.  It's built with rough lumber, cedar logs on 3 foot centers for floor joists, field stone foundation.  It has withstood 150 years of hurricanes and heavy snow loads on the roof.  The roof line is still as straight as the day it was built.  The walls are perfectly plume.  Funny how they builders didn't have building codes back then yet here the house still stands.

OK, my review:

I read the story as linked above and read the comments before I saw the movie.  I could see where they made the movie much less stressful(?) than the real story to make it more entertaining/enjoyable.  Overall, a very good, moving, emotional movie.  Since I was/am dealing with my building department, I can sure feel for him - it made me get all angry again :D  Well worth the time to watch.

The law is always right...We are not smart enough to built a house.  :D The law does trust us to built a airplane and to carry a loaded gun around, so do that.

I found it on Amazon Prime video and we watched it this past week.  This is one of those very good movies.  It's good in its own right independent of the bureaucratic aggravation theme, which would be funny if it weren't so true.
