The Straight Story

Richard Farnsworth stars as Alvin Straight—a no-nonsense man who has never relied on others. Now, with failing eyesight preventing him from driving and walking only possible with two canes, he leads a quiet life with his daughter Rose (Sissy Spacek). But when he learns that his estranged brother Lyle has suffered a debilitating stroke, Alvin embarks on a dangerous and emotional journey to make amends.
