Although a slight film, it does have it's moments, such as when the boys steal a compressor to get back at old rival of their fathers', and the criminally inept cousins, and it does have a genuine warmth. Dern acts a great role effortlessly and ably supported by June Squibb and the rest of the cast. Recommended.

Nebraska
No, not the Bruce Springsteen album, but a light comedy starring Bruce Dern, who played the Cop in The Driver all those years ago. A confused Woody Grant (Dern) keeps trying to get to Lincoln, Nebraska to claim a $1 Million prize, much to the consternation of his wife (June Squibb) and his sons David (Will Forte) and Ross (Bob Odenkirk, better known as Saul Goodman from Better Call Saul). David eventually relents and takes his father on a road trip via the town where he grew up.
