Riotously Funny

Don't miss this movie if you have to spend forever hunting down a copy. Fred Tuttle and the other characters are priceless. Fred, a 73 year old Vermont farmer, needs money to build a new barn and pay for his 94 year old father's hip replacement. (Insert light bulb here). He decided to run for office as the pay is $80,000. And so starts Fred's campaign.
