Storyline
Bill Porter is a cripple, handicapped since birth. His rather wealthy ma drives him around to indulge his ambition to become a door to door salesman. After endless refusals at sight, he is granted a test period on Watkins's worst round, and somehow survives, probably due to his good-mannered helpfulness as much as tireless persistence, becoming a trusted household adviser for lonely people. During his ma's senility ending in death, a Mormon couple helps Bill out, but his pride gets in the way of accepting, leading to a battle of charity. Written by KGF Vissers

I've always been suspicious of TV-only productions and TV-driven directors. "Door to Door", however, was a refreshing change in the sea of boredom and mediocrity latest TV productions have used us to.
It was a true delight to watch William H. Macy playing the salesman Bill Porter. We revisit generations from the 60s to the 90s -btw, great music selection - led by this guy who sells door to door. Helen Mirren who was recently in Gosford Park is great. Kathy Baker, the nurse in "The Cider House Rules" is fantastic. Both are short but great parts!
This movie is a must!
