BITTER SWEET
Today's NYTimes Best 1176 Film was
This story by Horton Foote is directed by Bruce Beresford and stars Robert Duval.
It is a gem.
Very small scale and exquisitely detailed.
It has some great people in it to support Duval as a broken down country singer who is on his last bender. Only he doesn't know that yet.
A small family and a small town along with a small band weans him from the terrors of the success road.
I liked it a lot and would not mind seeing it again. I might even look forward to it.
That makes it a 4 out of Netflix5.
