This is one of the finest movies I' ve seen recently. I' ve always considered Tommy Lee Jones to be a decent actor but I could never imagine that he could actually direct, and what is more, a movie that would touch me so deeply. This is a "road movie". The two main characters travel in order to fulfill a dead man's wish. The one of them is determined to do it no matter what, the other is literally dragged by the neck. Issues like racism, humanism, friendship, loneliness are but a few that this movie touches. It doesn't preach loudly, like many American movies tend to do. Instead it lets small truths slowly grow inside you in a magical way. Apart from T.L. Jones who was amazing on the main role I was very impressed by Barry Pepper's acting.I'd never seen him before in a movie but I believe that he gave one of the best performances of the last movie season.
