Dark Days


I saw a documentary last night that was very interesting. It was called Dark Days, made in 2000.

The movie follows a group of homeless people who live in an old abandoned Metra tunnel and how they survive. These homeless may live in darkness with rats and garbage, but that does not stop them from having shelter electricity TV's, VCR, stoves, refrigerators, etc. They live in a small neighborhood in the tunnel and how they interact with each other is also part of the story.

The movie is very good, a true documentary, I think it is well worth picking up at the store.

Other recommended documentaries are: American Movie, Stevie, Gummo
