Views that inspire, that calm, or that terrify – all come at some cost to the viewer. In Views Cost Extra you will find a New Jersey high school preppy who wants to inhabit the "perfect" cowboy movie, a rural mailman disgusted with the residents of his town who wants to live with the penguins, an ailing screen writer who strikes a deal with Johnny Cash to reverse an old man's failures, an old man who ponders a young man's suicide attempt, a one-armed blind blues singer who wants to reunite with the car that took her arm on the assembly line — and more. These stories suggest that we must pay something to live even ordinary lives.
