The Straight Story - Official Trailer

[vladanng]

Neverovatan film..bravo Ameri usta vas.. :D

[electronicmedium]

David Lynch has a heart! 

[Everwen45]

"Walt Disney Pictures presents a film by David Lynch"

Have I just been incepted?

[MrRexBailey]

This looks like a wonderful movie - must get to see it. It's the USA I love.

[AngusYoungForMayor]

A lot of people told me things like "an unusual movie for David Lynch". I always answer "All David Lynch's movies are unusual for him".

[BastardCinema]

i find it funny that a David Lynch movie is rated G and even more funny that is a Disney Movie.

[lurch321]

This and The Elephant Man are the only 2 Lynch films I've liked. Other than that, he's just too bizarre and out there for me.

[voltairinedecleyre66]

@lurch321 Have you seen Blue Velvet? It's relatively straight forward, despite Dennis Hopper's madness.

[TheMusiclover1705]

Fantastic movie and fantastic music!

[dfectus]

great music

[evadwall]

Starring the late, great Richard Farnsworth. If you've never seen it, and if you can find it, watch him in "The Grey Fox."

[Silence4Sounds]

My favorite Lynch's film, unassumingly brilliant!!

[halacha666]

cool movie--------------spielberg destroy the american movie

[wojack1000]

Love this movie! Whenever anybody ask me for a movie recommendation, I ask them have you seen "The Straight Story". Everybody that watches it says, you were right, it's a great movie. When I first seen it it reminded me of when I lived in the midwest. David Lynch nailed the characters in this movie.

[Soulwhacked]

I was kind of wary about seeing this. I'm a growing fan of Lynch's and I have no discrimination against a film of this kind... but up until now, I was kind of thinking perhaps this would be the one I wouldn't enjoy. After watching this trailer, I can hardly wait to see it.

[neuwerk2003]

I make my own stupid german songs, but when I hear this music and see this picture, tears are running down my face. I love this great movie.

[OliBN1]

I like most of Lynch's movies, but this is one of his best. The music and direction is simillier to some of his other films, but the storyline is completely unambigious. Really emotional and heartfelt thanks largely to the fantastic acting.

[VultureCabaret]

The biggest mistake of Oscar's Academy ever made is that Richard didn't win an "best actor award" for his amazing play in this movie.

[halacha666]

@VultureCabaret oscars=godd movie hahahaha

[jordi0508]

CLOSERTOFIFTYTHANANYEW is WRONG ...There were TRENCHES in World War II and if he did his research he would know that there were pleanty of them in Belgium near Krinkelt and they used them right up until the start of the Battle Of the Bulge and so did the Soviets and the Germans all throughout the WWII theater!!!! Foxholes...trenches....and used in the Korean and Vietnam!!!! Albeit trench warfare was greatly reduced following WWI as the style and techniques used to kill and mame changed.

[closertofiftythanyew]

sorry to suffer a pedant, but there was no trenches in world war two, just tanks, blowing everything up.

But brilliant film, David Lynch.

[itcoll]

whats the number of 911

[johndeere3746]

R.I.P Richard Farnsworth god bless thankyou for briging us this epic film

[wdrpgwd]

R.I.P. Richard Farnsworth and the real Alvin Straight.

[zuco1605]

what is name of the song playing?plz.somebody its great!!!

[theshockingpinks]

@zuco1605 It's the main theme for the film, written by Lynch's long-time musical collaborator (and actor in the HILARIOUS "this is the girl!" scene in Mulholland Drive) ANGELO BADALAMENTI. ALL of the pieces, -almost like a modern-country re-take on the "Twin Peaks theme"-, are VERY similar but NOT in a bad way AT ALL. In fact it's most consistent AND my favorite, Badalamenti/Lynch score (CD available on Windham Hill Records), so IF you like this? imagine an hour's worth of truly beautiful music

[zuco1605]

@theshockingpinks  Thnx :))

[kenneld]

the thing i love about this movie is that it's exactly what you would expect if you imagined the one-in-a-million absolute best case outcome of lynch making a movie for disney. it's corny and haunting and saccharine and beautiful.

my favorite lynch movie, easy.

[TheOrangeMaster]

This is actually pure David Lynch. It has some subtle surrealistic/eerie moments such as the bartender pouring coffee, and it's also very haunting and dark. Again, all subtly. A typical Disney film won't have such a graphic conversation about the war, nor will it show somebody failing on their old tractor. It's humanistic and beautifully haunting.

[hiodr]

to view life from a riding mower. maybe forrest and alvin were on to something.

[stjo5555]

amazing movie.really intense.

[ReijiNakashi]

Lynch and Disney working together... this world IS fucked up after all

[resoloser]

That movie works like a sleeping pill for me!

LOL!

[kenneld]

awesome awesome awesome movie. brilliant score too.

[De0rach]

"Whats that grabber for Alvin?". My favourite line in what is one of my favourite films. If you haven't seen it do yourself a favour: grab a grabber and grab yourself a copy!

[sirenrose666]

David Lynch and Disney? O_O I thought I would never see that kind of merger.

[kathykisslight]

Just finished watching it. What a sweet movie! It really touched me, made me think of how far I am from my family and how much I love them.

[DavidL999]

Such a touching movie. Lynch shows he's not all about wierdness and incomprehensable plots!

[kjsh987]

this movie is really special.it shows a virtue that not many people has and that virtue is the pacience.how the man travels in that vehicle who moves like 50 km/h and dont leave it.thats really is interesting.

[sacrosanct8]

good movie and it reminds me a little bit of "into the wild" in some ways

[sorenlarrington]

It didn't have nearly as many boobs and stabbing scenes as some of Lynch's other movies, but it was okay

[Mrtinkyloo]

Wonderful, gentle movie and it's a shame that the movie itself didn't get a lot of attention from the Academy voters (besides the Best Actor nomination for Farnsworth - well deserved of course).

[gravelandgrain100]

Talk about journey vs. destination! This is a great departure for David Lynch. I know this area VERY well and the Grotto, RAGBRAI, names of towns I have actual friend in-it just is so authentic. I see alot of artistic views within Lynch's films that are almost like "still-lifes" of ordinary, but a whole other side portrayed on film. I enjoyed this film and the scene with the young hitchiker and what she leaves with him in the AM is just lovely. SEE THIS FILM!!

[amazingdany]

What a nice movie!

[FOXMOULDER100]

Love this film, so visually beautifull and touching, great soundtrack too.

[laramorim]

love this movie!!

[thelastglance]

well, if david lynch can do Disney, then so can Shyamalan.

this movie looks like it's up my alley, though.

[broccolifan1]

@thelastglance fuck shyamalan

[Bagsterflop]

I really liked the film... simple, gentle and slow, but at the same time touching and emotive.

[Loggn1507]

The best movie i have ever seen...

[balu9181716151413121]

this is one of my favourite movie .... cant found anything else to say ...

[directorlog]

Looks like a nice story, Love the elephant man, that film still move's me, It depicts how humans have become judge-mental through being civilized.

[AllisterCooper2008]

My favorite David Lynch film. Astonishing.

[renao]

Its kinda film you don't see anymore these days, dont you agree?

I feel the american cinema have been losing much of its "touch", of its "atmosphere", mainly in this last decade.

[GrimmjowJ1]

beautiful movie!very touching!

[Hardliner1269]

How difficult it must have been for Richard Farnsworth to turn in this Oscar Nominated Performance that will make men cry all the while he was battling bone cancer and in pain. He died the following year.

[Hardliner1269]

This is one of my top 20 BEST FILMS and the best David Lynch has ever done.

Sad that Richard Farnsworth didn't win Best Actor but that year it went to Kevin Spacey for American Beauty who deserved it also

[ryanhancock1234]

what the fuck was lynch thinking when he made this trash

[Tr0llsNeverDie]

@ryanhancock1234 you shut the fuck up asshole

[kefir0076]

He was thinking I will show people just a straight story.

[TheOrangeMaster]

@kefir0076

It is a straight story, but also very complex.

[jinco69]

Angelo Badalamenti - Laurens Walking

[Grenzwert80]

was für ein hervorragender film..ausnahmefilm..

[ThePakpakistan]

i have only one word

POWERFUL

[MrMovieoreo]

ive uploaded this if anyone is interested

[eddjoey]

gawd... i really love this movie

[TQmatt]

Underrated & Beautiful.

David Lynch is so great on sentimentality and emotion. Music & imagery is heaven.

[mytmyt]

I live in Michigan, but my family's roots are in Iowa and Wisconsin. I found this movie to be the truest representation of life in the midwest I've ever seen.

I have a friend from India -- a real movie fan -- and I told him if he wanted to understand was America, specifically the midwest, is really like, all he need do is watch this movie.

[Rationalist913]

You got that right. mytmyt

[Rationalist913]

ALVIN- "The worst thing about being old is

remembering when you were young."

[Rationalist913]

It is to bad Richard Farnsworth shot himself after this movie. Cancer!

[Rationalist913]

This was a great movie. Usually the best ones are never seen by the masses.

[iLuvAkeys4ever]

Couldn't he have borrowed the bus fare! Why!

[countevil]

wow it's hard to believe David Lynch made this.

[iLuvAkeys4ever]

Why, David Lynch made Blue Velvet Brilliant movie, Dune, again another brilliant movie! And the greatest movie every made after the original star wars and that is IF YOU CAN WORK IT OUT, once I did i cried so hard for days, but I think you need some life experinces such as mental health issue to really understand this movie that's why it went over so many people's heads, the film I am talking about is no other than Mulholland Drive starring Naomi Watts of King Kong fame.

[countevil]

No need to make such a big deal out of it. I'm not discrediting him as a director (I love his work). I'm just saying it's completely different to stuff he's done like eraser head.

[bassman462]

I do not consider Dune to be that great... which is no surprise considering they denied Lynch final cut. But I agree, Lynch is a brilliant filmmaker, not just a weird one. I'm currently working on finishing the Twin Peaks series and movie Fire Walk With Me.

Have you seen "Inland Empire" it's like the last quarter of Mulholland Dr. but three hours of it.

[NewestTrailer101]

know the girl at the camfire scene when she said my faimly hates me shes in my faimly

[sparkyinbath]

Wonderful film.

[ManuelHung]

Hands down the best movie Lynch ever made...

[GerbilEssences]

"Flymo to Des Moines, let me sleep among the stars..."

[Loukas1984]

The first two times i saw this film i cried. Incredible movie.

[viml7]

Tugs at the heart strings..a real gem :)

[Viktor780620]

This film is one of my all time favourite! From Lynch, its totally diffent than his other movies though...

[licht126]

yep when i think in David Lynch i thought in eraserhead.

[DerAdventurer]

Everytime I watch this it makes me cry. Its such a beautiful story about simple people who go behind their destiny, following their beliefs. Its touching to see the will of this man, such a strong person. In my opinion, it shows the most awesome part of America. I'm speechless about it. Tears say for me.

[Koetje1978]

The song before these telling you that i am not word it.

I REALLY STILL WANT TO SEE YOU AT 20.00

So i go to this beautifull movie and melody.

[FIL086]

hmm this film doesn't look like a film Lynch would make. I'll def pass based on the trailer alone!

[gazork123]

This is a wonderful movie, don't pass it up! The interesting part is that it's based on a completely true story, and that the star, Richard Farnsworth, actually had to use two canes to walk in real life. He was wracked with cancer. An action/adventure film it is not, it moves at a deliberate pace, but it's a showcase of interaction between often total strangers, how people are still willing to help others, and a testament to the constitution of older people. Check it out!

[4jonah]

dont be superficial. its my favorite lynch movie. he was quoted as saying about this film, "Tenderness can be just as abstract as insanity." While it may not me a mindfuck, the movie is painfully beautiful, haunting and very tender. You can pass it up, but you will be missing a gem. Forget that Lynch did it, and take it for what it is. Harry Dean Stanton is in it, and Angelo Baladamenti did the music, so he has his regular crew

[TheScrewball1982]

@4jonah It's purely beautiful; Lynch needs no justification for making anything and I agree fully with your comment. I Love this film, along with The Elephan Man, just as much as I do Inland Empire. I don't understand people's need to categorise things so much. At its heart, this is pure Lynch

[sparkyinbath]

he did make it. i can prove it. it says his name on the credits.
