Description
In 1981, Ross McElwee set out to make a documentary about Sherman's March to the Sea. On the way, he got dumped. Stuck with his grant money, the devastated, self-deprecating McElwee made the movie anyway -- but his attention kept drifting from the historical figure to contemporary girls. Ross McElwee, 1986, 16mm, color, 157 min.
