David Lynch's classic that earned lead actor Richard Farnsworth an Oscar nomination at age 80, now restored in 4K due to its 25th anniversary.
The Straight Story is based on the true story of Alvin Straight. When the elderly man learns in 1994 that his brother - whom he has not spoken to in a long time - has suffered a stroke, he decides to visit him in hopes of reconciliation. The story takes a peculiar turn when the petulant Alvin - who is too visually impaired to drive a car - decides to travel the 500-plus miles from Iowa to Wisconsin on his electric lawnmower. The film tells the story of the six-week journey during which Alvin has extraordinary encounters with locals with their own stories.
