Writer-director Alan Ball (screenwriter of American Beauty) helms this comedy-drama about the Bledsoe family of Creekville, South Carolina. Set mostly in the early 1970s, it's the story of Frank (Paul Bettany), who's secretly gay, and his niece, Beth (Sophia Lillis), who feels most akin to Frank—a quiet, thoughtful man amid Southern rednecks. Frank escaped small-town Southern life and teaches literature at an NYC college, where Beth now attends as a freshman. Beth's father, Mike (Steve Zahn), is a classic Southerner, but the patriarch of the family—Frank and Mike's father, Daddy Mac (Stephen Root)—is a cruel, closed-minded bigot. When Daddy Mac dies of a sudden heart attack, Frank agrees to drive home with Beth to attend the funeral. Unbeknownst to them, Frank's boyfriend of 10 years, Walid "Wally" Nadeem (Peter Macdissi), rents a car and follows them, hoping to lend emotional support to Frank. Mixing flashbacks to Frank's younger years (young Frank played by Cole Dorman), we see what the trauma of repression and closeted sexuality has wrought on Frank's life. (95 min.)
