The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia

The Wild and Wonderful Whites of West Virginia is a 2009 documentary film, directed by Julien Nitzberg, about a family that is extremely wild, however, not so wonderful. Living in the Appalachian mountains and exposed to the hill-billy mentality, each member of the White family struggles to pursuit happiness in their crime and drug infested lives. In their town, they are one quite infamous family for their frequent appearances in prison and the police's "most wanted" list. Usually when an individual misbehaves, one would would expect their loved ones to attempt in resolving their problem, unfortunately, that is not the solution to the White family's problem for each family member has participated in unacceptable acts. The White family's only solution would be to attend a rehabilitation institution. As the film proceeds, The White Family not only discusses their struggle to stay out of trouble, but the serious consequences that occur as a result of their sinful ways. Overall, I would recommend this movie because this film reminds its audience of the deletrious effects that drugs and crime has on not only an individual, but a group of people.
