Title: NEBRASKA (2013) Post by: RCMerchant on November 24, 2014, 06:56:01 AM Bruce Dern is an old man living in Billings,Montana who has one of thost magazine subscription junk mail letters that sez he has one a million dollars-so he decides to walk to Nebraska and cash it in. His son cant talk him out of it-so he drives him.They stop in his old hometown and his family and his ex business partner-played by Stacey Keach-try to get there fingers in the pie-not knowing he has won nothing.
Great acting by Dern-he's really low key here. I like the scene at Mount Rushmore- David Grant: So, what do you think, dad? Woody Grant: It doesn't look finished to me. David Grant: How do you mean? Woody Grant: [upon seeing Mount Rushmore] Well, it looks like somebody got bored doing it. Washington's the only one with any clothes, and they're just kind of roughed in. Lincoln doesn't even have an ear. This is a very slow film-but its enjoyable-like sitting on a porch on a lazy evening sipping whiskey. http://youtu.be/ZuIBvmxIN4w (http://youtu.be/ZuIBvmxIN4w) Title: Re: NEBRASKA (2013) Post by: RCMerchant on December 07, 2014, 05:51:53 AM Does anybody at all like this movie beyond me?

Check him out in SILENT RUNNING (sure you have),TATTOO,and he's great in the Aileen Wournos movie MONSTER.I think youll like it Burgo,if not LOVE it-I LOVE it. Bruceis so-for once-underpalying his role. He's a good actor-because you would think he really is the delusional old guy in the film-when in real life that guy has it all together-and is a great actor.
