Synopsis:
Story of fathers and sons, wars and peace, and the turbulent time that changed America forever. It's 1969 in a small Alabama town, and the death of a quirky clan's long estranged wife and mother bring together two very different families for the funeral. But do the scars of the past hide differences that will tear them apart or expose truths that could lead to the most unexpected collisions of all?

Modern American cinema at its best. - Jayne Mansfield's Car review by DW

Brilliant, bloody brilliant!

Stay focused from the start if you want to work out who is who: initially it's a bit confusing. Not to worry because one character gives full details a bit later on at which point it all drops into place.

All the ingredients were there for a major piece of entertainment: a credible story line, humour, sadness, ruined lives, a great team of supporting actors, a poignant ending plus Robert Duvall & Billy Bob Thornton turning out superb performances. They are two giants in this film though they are only briefly share the limelight in one-to-one scenes.

In a couple of scenes there is some pretty dodgy body "make up" but I'd still score this film 99 out of a 100.
