...North Carolina comedians Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal, say they have a camera and plenty of ideas - they just need a business to film. They've produced six spots so far, for establishments ranging from a cosmetology school to a Cuban gynecologist turned car salesman. (Really.) The results are predictably absurdist, and local businesses have proved more than happy to play along - several hundred have nominated themselves for a spot...
...Aushev spoke out anyway--and paid the price for his bravery. On Oct. 25, the 43-year-old businessman, who became a human-rights activist after his son and nephew were reportedly tortured by police in 2007, became the third opposition figure murdered in four months when his car was sprayed with bullets as he traveled to visit relatives.

...movie is firmly rooted in a mythical past (the 1990s) full of sweaters and mom jeans, laminate tables, and a willful ignorance of a larger world outside of that which can be reached by car. It’s a kind of nostalgia for a nerd-kitsch Americana that would be more appropriate 20 years from now. This world is the same one that Hess captures in “Napoleon Dynamite,” only here he seems determined to test the limits of the weirdness of small-town America...
