The Straight Story
Alvin Straight, a 70-year-old widower and retired farmer, learns one day that his distant brother Lyle has suffered a stroke and may not survive. Alvin is anxious to make amends with Lyle while he still has the opportunity, but his brother lives in Wisconsin, and Alvin is stranded in Iowa without a car or a driver's license. Then he comes up with the brilliant idea of making the journey on his old lawnmower, kicking off a picturesque and at times incredibly spiritual journey.
