Get Low

Post by vern »

Robert Duvall stars as a hermit who wants to have his funeral before he dies. I understand it's based on a true story from the 1930's. Bill Murray and Sissy Spacek also star.

If you're a Duvall fan you'll eat this one up.

Farrah Fawcett was a legitimately great actress, highly underrated imho.
