So, Rude Questions is this intriguing little documentary from 1980 that dives into the life of Larry Loomer, an antiquarian bookstore owner. The pacing is pretty laid-back, which suits the small-town vibe perfectly. Larry himself is quite the character—his wry humor adds a unique flavor to the narrative. You get a real sense of the charm and quirks of book collecting through his eyes. The atmosphere is cozy yet reflective, with moments that make you ponder the world around us. It's not flashy or overly produced, but that’s part of its charm. There’s something about watching Larry as he navigates his day that feels both relatable and oddly enlightening. Quite a distinctive slice of life.
