Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

Bernie (2012)

Fascinating and entertaining true story of Bernie, a beloved small-town funeral director who killed the meanest lady in town.

This is just such a nutty charmer of a movie that I doubted its veracity quite a few times. Dozens of townspeople tell their story documentary-style (and we find out in the end credits that the people we've seen are the actual townspeople), and they do so with gusto. A pleasure to watch.
