They come over as just ordinary folk but with a story to tell and their stories are poignant which is what drives the plot and director Lynch draws from Farnsworth equal poignancy.A real trap for directors and writers you might think but it is carried off very well as long as you are prepared for the lack of car chases, violence, sex, nudity and CGI's ---- this really is a meandering little story of the interaction between people, the pain of their memories, their fallibilitys and ultimately their search for redemption. I don't mean that to sound melodramatic because we all suffer and experience those feelings and the film explores those emotions through the passing interactions between Alvin and the people who try to help him.Some beautiful music throughout by Angelo Badalamenti, more famed for his award winning melodic work on Lynch's 'Twin Peaks', and there is a certain 'flavour' that comes over very recognizable. Production design by Jack Fisk who has worked with Lynch and Terrence Malick many times (they're all in the same bunch with a related style if you know what I mean). Cinematography by Freddie Francis (of Hammer film fame) ---- let me be honest and imagine that Lynch told him that this film has no vampires or werewolves and Francis may have replied OK I'll do plenty of roads and crops ---- there is a lot of that, quite beautiful. I'm reminded of a friend who was recently taken on a safari in South Africa by his wife and said, when I asked him if he enjoyed it, that when you've seen one deer you've seen them all. Please ! Please !Sadly the late great Harry Dean Stanton's appearance is like a puff of smoke at the end of the film. But the film is what it is, perhaps best described as an observational road trip.107 minutes long, no extras. Though the dvd is not advertised as having subtitles it HAS English subtitles ---- forgive me but I've lent this film out so many times the disc is missing from the case, and I have a notation on the jacket that English subs are present ------- track and trace necessary! I watched the film on Film 4 (04-07-20). ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heartwarming *by R***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 April 2020* I will never tire of watching this film.I first saw this film back in 2000 and it has not lost any of its magic.The film tells the true story of Alvin Straight, who in 1994, then 73 years old but with failing eyes and bad legs, drives his riding mower 260 miles to visit his estranged brother who has recently suffered a stroke.A truly heartwarming masterpiece. Though simple in it’s conception the direction and acting is first class.A must watch :-) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lynch on fire in his best and most mature film yet. *by M***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 May 2018* Simply put,this is Lynch’s best film. This completely blind-sided me with it’s simplicity,decency and honesty. The landscapes slide by to an accompanying soundtrack of mellow country-folk as he gently steers the story of an ageing Everyman on an alternative kind of road-trip-to-redemption story. I love Lynch’s quirky,dark,dystopian vision and here there is none of it. This is just pure story telling mixed in with a patient eye for colour,hue and scenery. And camera sun flares........ lovely in every way with a last scene steal from Harry Dean of course. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/63987391-the-straight-story-dvd](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/63987391-the-straight-story-dvd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
