Hobo's Journey

Quote:
Alison Murray's documentary from 2000 where she embarks on a hobo's journey across Canada and the US. Watching her hop trains is inspiring, in an I-would-never-do-that kind of way. Bonus: The soundtrack is a rare example of Beck granting permission for his music to be used.

I know, when I punched in my address I saw that they went across the street to my neighbor's house, then crossed the other street and stood on the side walk. Lazy lima beans.
