Richard Farnsworth stars as Alvin Straight, now at an age when his eyesight denies him the ability to drive. Alvin lives a quiet life with his daughter Rose (Sissy Spacek). When the call comes that Alvin’s estranged brother has suffered a stroke, Alvin climbs aboard his 1966 John Deere lawnmower and plots the 260-mile course from his small Iowa town to Lyle’s home in Wisconsin, touching lives along the way.
