Poetry and truth are at the heart of David Lynch's THE STRAIGHT STORY. Based on the real-life 260-mile route that Alvin Straight traversed on his lawnmower in 1994 - the story chronicles his slow but steady pilgrimage through the heartland of America. By way of his life's earned wisdom, Alvin leaves a profound impact on the strangers he meets along the way. Richard Farnsworth, Harry Dean Stanton and Sissy Spacek star. #thanksgiving #family #wisdom #gratitude #thestraightstory #richardfarnsworth #davidlynch #sissyspacek #harrydeanstanton #heartland #lawnmower #roadmovie #alvinstraight
