Nebraska (2013)


An aging, booze-addled father makes the trip from Montana to Nebraska with his estranged son in order to claim a million-dollar Mega Sweepstakes Marketing prize.

Wonderful road movie thanks to paced, thoughtful direction, a splendid cast and some fantastic black-and-white photography.

Maltin***1/2: "Rich comedic portrait of taciturn Midwesterners..., featuring a gallery of wonderfully authentic faces... Dern and Forte anchor the film with their solid, credible performances. Beautifully shot in widescreen black & white..."
