Berman and Pulcini's look at the making of televisions' first entry into reality television "An American Family" misses its marks too often to be considered important. The story of the Loud family and the changes it went through as the ever present camera shaped their responses should have been a much more poignant and interesting story than what makes it to the screen here. Lane always good but film fails.
