Home improvement involves the repair, restoration, or remodeling of a property. From a filmmaker’s point of view, this experience comes rife with metaphorical possibility. Just as a home can be torn down and rebuilt, so can an individual or an interpersonal relationship.
Metaphors aside, home repair movies often center around a couple who purchase a fixer-upper only to contend with a series of disasters. A relatable comedy of errors perhaps, but these films also double as cautionary tales. Take heed, potential homebuyers!
