David Lynch's classic is now digitally restored.
Filmed along the 260-mile route that the actual Alvin Straight traversed in 1994 from Laurens, lowa to Mt. Zion, Wisconsin, The Straight Story chronicles Alvin's patient odyssey and those he meets along the way. When not rolling along at five miles an hour aboard his '66 John Deere, Alvin encounters several strangers, from a teenage runaway to a fellow World War II veteran. By sharing his life's earned wisdom with simple stories, Alvin has a profound impact on these characters that colour his pilgrimage.
