...other things it includes and successfully manages to integrate an over-tanned elderly Floridian French-kissing her dog, flying semen, a psychotic hitchhiker, masturbation, a guitar-strumming Greek chorus, the television show "C.O.P.S.," golfing and some other still more outrageous elements. Even football legend Brett Favre does a great cameo in the film. Yet Mary, aims for the viewers heart, as Mary herself is the epitome of kindness and goodwill. She has a mentally retarded brother, Warren, whom she loves deeply and cares for so much that she dumps a boyfriend who is almost perfect, except for the fact that...
