    Reality.

    I found this movie on Amazon Prime Video and saw Jeff Daniels was in it. I thought I'd give it a chance. It's called Homeless on Amazon Prime Video. As someone who was homeless twice as a child and on public assistance (welfare) my entire childhood, this movie is very realistic and heartbreaking. Most people are a pay check away from homelessness. It can happen to anyone! You don't need an addiction or bad habits. Give spare change to those holding signs and donate to charities and organizations who help the homeless.
