It's pretty funny
zodreb18 December 2005
I recorded the show "Are We On" from PBS when it was on many years ago and this was featured on it. I recently re-watched all my old tapes and saw this. It's a real gem of a film. It's very subtly hilarious but also has some flat out funny gags. The delivery that the narrator gives is perfect and the way the actors look is perfect, too.

The story is simply what the description states. It's watching Aunt Hallie do silly things, like throwing away perfectly good plates or trying to get out of a chair without touching the armrests, and other stupid stuff to keep from spreading what she thinks is a disease she's contracted. All the while the narrator is giving a very monotoned but hilarious southern, slow narration about what Aunt Hallie is doing.

I suffer from tourettes/obsessive compulsive disorder, so this seems even funnier to a person like me.
