Can you help me find this movie about an old brother traveling?

Asked by whitecarnations (1638points) February 27th, 2012

I’m thinking it’s got the title, “Home.” The synopsis is this brother hasn’t seen his brother in a long time and finally decides he has to visit him. He rides there on a tractor.

@digitalimpression THANKS! I guess there was no , “home” in the title but thank you so much.

Yes, it’s the oddly titled The Straight Story. @digitalimpression has it. (GA)

This was one of the many that have made me wonder how in the world they come up with some of those titles.

I’ve now posted a question about mistitled movies in case you’d care to add your thoughts.

It is really a clever name for the movie since it’s a true story based on the man Alvin Straight.
