The hit of the 1999 Sundance Film Festival, “American Movie,” is the hilarious and intense story of one man’s obsession to make movies. Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin, is a long way from Hollywood, but Mark Borchardt has a dream. Armed with a driving ambition and nothing to lose, the fast-talking Borchardt enlists friends, local thespians, and unwilling family members to help him finish his no-budget horror film, “Coven.” The camera doesn’t flinch as it captures every emotional crisis and financial pitfall in his two-year odyssey. What emerges is a bizarre yet surprisingly heartfelt documentary portrait of a true American character.
