Nebraska 6/10
The other night Cam called and asked me
if I wanted to check out a movie I'd never heard of which seems to be
the case the past few months. It is a movie called Nebraska and is
about a son and family dealing with a father that is suffering from
what for all intents and purposes Alzheimer's. I had no idea that
this was in black and white and actually didn't really mind. I'm an
adult. I watch movies that aren't in color, have subtitles, and don't
always have explosions
David played by comedian Will Forte
goes to deal with his father Woody Grant played by Bruce Dern who
can't seem to keep his ass at home and keeps wandering around town.
Why? Because he wants to go to Lincoln, Nebraska because he thinks he
won a million dollars from a sweepstakes. No matter what anyone tells
him he thinks he now has this money to get a new truck (he doesn’t
drive anymore) and a compression machine (he hasn't had one since
1974). His mother Kate played by June Squibb is pissed that David is
wasting his time with his dad and not helping her out.
