Local writer B.J. Hollars found the perfect movie in 1992 in the movie aisle of his local grocery store in Fort Wayne, Indiana: "The Great Outdoors," an outdoorsy, slapstick comedy, complete with foul-mouthed raccoons, a bald-headed bear, and no shortage of laughs. Hollars fell in love with the scenery of the ultra fictitious Claire County, Wisconsin, and wondered: Did such a place even exist? And then, 20 years later, he moved there. Hollars pulls us along the adventure of a lifetime as he internet sleuths his way to a phone call with Hollywood film director Howard Deutch and finally learns the answer to his burning question: Is "The Great Outdoors" set in Eau Claire, Wisconsin? (Hint: the answer is yes!) Visual/Voice features some of the best writers in the region visually vocalizing their words that appear in our pages.
