★★★★ · Bringing in Purple Rain no doubt · Spuzz · 2017-08-28
Rather unusual film about this otherwise forgettable bird returning year after year to Griggsville Illinois. They've got an mosquito problem, and luckily, the Martins love them. So the town became the "Purple Martin Capital Of The World!" They've got fancy dancy birdhouses that are specifically buiilt for them, others are shunned. Of course, it helps if the supposedly-preferred-birdhouse builder is the sponsor of the film! Rather unusual and reccomended!
