The Citizen of the Year is a 2004 comedy film by "Watson Films". The film is about a man who, in a desperate attempt to become the Citizen of the Year, treats a bum to dinner in a fancy restaurant.[1]
Plot
Ballser, a man who lives in a fancy house, greets his neighbor, who lives in a messy shack. Ballser informs the neighbor that he was nominated for Citizen of the Year again. The neighbor grudgingly congratulates Ballser. Ballser starts to ask about the neighbor's parrot, but then notices a trash can full of dead parrots. A father and son insult the neighbor, and a group of people walk by and enthusiastically greet Ballser. Ballser leaves, and the neighbor, angry, shoots a light on Ballser's house. The neighbor decides he wants to compete for Citizen of the Year.
Later that day, the neighbor ignore pleas of help from an old lady and a robbery in progress. The neighbor spots and bum and insults him, but then begrudgingly realizes if he helps the bum, he might be eligible for the award. The neighbor tosses a coin at the bum. The bum scoffs at the neighbor's weak attempt at charity. The neighbor demands the bum vote for him for Citizen of the Year, saying that the bum "owes him." The bum confronts the neighbor, sarcastically saying maybe he'll buy a large meal and a house with the coin.
"Or maybe I'll beat the crap out of you and steal all yo' money!" the bum concludes. Frightened, the neighbor says he'll do anything. The bum asks for a meal. The neighbor tells the bum to put some pants on. The bum steals some pants and is confronted by the store owner, but Ballser appears and pays for the pants.
The neighbor takes the bum to a restaurant. Eventually the neighbor yells at the bum, and everyone stares. The bum eats an expensive meal and urinates at the table. A waiter slips on the urine and the neighbor is asked to leave. The neighbor tries to point out the bum did it, but is thrown out.
One year later, the neighbor is grumbling about how he doesn't want Ballser to win Citizen of the Year again. The bum watches the neighbor approach. Ballser appears and tells the bum "You know what to do."
