Mainstream-accessible yet completely maintains Lynch's uniquely off-kilter artistic identity.

Another pleasant surprise.

Is The Straight Story one of my favorite Lynch films? Hard to say. Is it one of his most meticulously, and perfectly constructed? Well, I just can't disagree on that one.

A polished supporting cast makes The Straight Story seem almost like a documentary.

I don't know how much is 'based on a true story,' but deeper truth about life, love, and forgiveness rings out loud and clear.
