Reception[edit]
The documentary garnered mixed reviews.[3] The Times said "Theroux risks becoming the Alan Whicker de nos jours, a tourist with a typewriter, peering into these other lives but rarely getting dirty himself."[4]
The Guardian called the work "an extraordinary film, a sad portrait of a very different California".[1]
