"It used to be that Vermont had two celebrities -- Ben and Jerry, the ice cream millionaires. Now it's Ben and Jerry  -- and Fred." The New York Times  

"Fred Tuttle touches an American heartstring that will play well across the country: a simple, "everyman" story that captures the essence of community life and real people, while gently satirizing the electoral process -- and giving it a human touch at the same time. With his loving and often hilarious treatment of this farmer-turned-candidate story, director John O'Brien has captured a generation and a way of life that is fast disappearing from our landscape."  Kelly Luoma, Vermont Public Television

"John O'Brien uses the hard Vermont countryside and his neighbors in Tunbridge, Vermont as themselves in the telling of made-up stories. Fred Tuttle, a wily old country naif, decides to run for Congress and triumphs in his hapless simplicity over sophistication, money, and power. We do not get a sugared take on pastoral virtues; we get living people -- cranky, odd, sad, generous.... there's a sharp, life-weathered Vermont tang to the life we see." Donald Lyons, The Wall Street Journal
