Stars Robert Duvall, Tess Harper, Betty Buckly and Ellen Barkin. Directed by Bruce Beresford -- This is a classic film by an Australian director about a down-to-earth American country singer as he picks up the pieces of his once broken life.  Duvall won an Oscar Award for this movie, he was a drunken, divorced musician whose voice has left him.  He finds a renewed dignity when he married a young widow played by Harper and takes her son under his wing.The film tells about the poignant story of Duvall and the brilliant description of an American life. Horton Foote won an Oscar Award for best screen play.  The film received best picture nomination and best directorial job for Beresford.
