Overview

After his brother, who he’d not seen for 10 years because of a falling out, had a stroke, the 73 year old Alvin Straight decided to visit him. Yet Alvin didn’t have a drivers license or a bus ticket so he decided he would drive his lawnmower 300 miles to see this brother. Based on a true story and by cult director David Lynch.
