Mike S As everyone points out, this film has a superb cast. And the basic Faulkneresque idea that serves as a framework for the story is original and potentially rich with humor, drama and some very moving scenes. But the film has problems with pacing, character development, and dialog. And the story loses it's way in the 2nd half of the film and starts meandering. Bill Murray did a comendable job playing a character that doesn't quite know who he's supposed to be, a cynical, comic hustler or someone desperately in need of a little success. Ditto Bill Cobbs who does the best one could hope for playing a character who's so poorly thought out he ends up being superfluous to the story. I was left wondering if there were scenes relegated to the cutting room floor that could've helped helped flesh out the story and the characters. Overall a disappointment given the quality of the cast. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/05/25 Full Review Rita E Excellent movie. Based on a true story. Excellent acting.

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/09/24 Full Review isla s This is a quirky film, with an intriguing story and interesting characters. Its based on a real life legend, apparently, so there may be some truth to it. I thought it was interesting how different people, locals in the nearby community, reacted to the hermit, Felix Bush and what we learn about him. This film has a great cast, including Robert Duvall, Sissy Spacek and Bill Murray. I'd say its a somewhat thought provoking film and one I'd happily recommend, yes. There are some amusing moments in it as well as serious aspects to it as well. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review nuveau s An engaging tale made more compelling by great performances. Mr. Duvall is as marvelous as ever and as ever makes the role his own. Ms. Spacek reminds us what a marvelous actor she is as well. And throughout, Mr. Murray provides a deft touch of humor. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Might be a bit to subtle but a perfect cast that is lifted by Duvall and Murray. Love the idea of throwing your own funeral while still alive. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
