Nebraska

NebraskaAs Pat and I waited for the movie to begin we realized we didn’t have a clue what it was about. We knew Bruce Dern starred in it, but that was about all we knew. It is a delightful story of an aging man and his son. The father believes he has won a million dollars in a lottery and, since no one will believe him or drive him to collect his prize, he continually sets out walking from Billings, Montana to Lincoln, Nebraska. Eventually one of his sons agrees to drive him and the events of their trip are told in the story. Very funny, but rather sad at times. The movie was shot in black and white; Pat thought that was a good affect but I didn’t like it as much.
