I didn't bring 5 dollars cash the first time I took a plane to SF from the east coast. You end up watching a movie on a projector screen without sound. I end up reading through Microsoft foundation classes books. On the way back I had my 5 dollars ready.

The movie was about a brother who returns to a small town to visit his sister in a southern town. He ends up staying and helping her with the kids. But his irresponsible ways causes frustration with the sister and the kids he is watching. He leaves. End of movie.

Truly awful. I wonder what the first movie was like.




I'm 'kinda curious to know which movie is this.


I've been trying to figure it out for awhile.

It would be in the early 2000s. Let me try AI. Found it. What an age we live in.

You Can Count on Me - 2000 Sammy is a single mother who is extremely protective of her 8-year old son. She is satisfied with living in the small town she grew up in and working in a local bank. When her brother Terry visits he fits the void in the life of both her and her son. Temporarily free of the constraints of single motherhood she begins to break free of her normal routine. In a string of traumatic events Sammy is torn between helping her brother and her maternal instinct to protect her son from getting hurt.

95% rotten tomato score. Someone liked it.


I did find this while looking for it the other day: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncle_Buck
