Well people of Brookville we do live in smalltown America. The economy is at its worst. End of days are nearing maybe not in some of ours lifetime, but people are starving, businesses closing all or some of their locations & homelessness is on the rise. Therefore people the electronic age is progressing and making further advancements. So we need to help our local businesses as much as possible. They've relied on you all these years don't let them down now. They have families and need to eat also. So you should go visit these local businesses and see if there's something you can do to help them!!! The littlest things help. I go in the HOMETOWN VIDEO just to see Vicky & Allen and I buy cans of coke from them. .60$ each those are 1990s prices. But it still helps them somewhat. Very nice people make you feel at home.

Read moreTo be fair, I’ve never actually visited Hometown Video in Brookville, Indiana in person—but I discovered them online and instantly fell in love with the store. There’s just something magical about seeing a true, old-school video rental shop still thriving in today’s world. So much so, I genuinely want to make the trip all the way from Missouri just to become a member and rent movies there myself. That’s how special this place feels.
What really sealed it for me was calling the store and speaking with the owner. He was an absolutely fantastic person—friendly, welcoming, and clearly passionate about what he does. You can tell he genuinely cares about the people who walk through his doors. In a time where everything is digital, he’s keeping the spirit of movie nights, browsing shelves, and local connection alive.
Thank you, Hometown Video, for keeping the movie rental legacy alive every time you unlock the door. You’re not just renting movies—you’re preserving a culture, a tradition, and a feeling that still matters.
