Nebraska (2013)
This movie (IMDB) is rather peculiar, even if it tells a rather simple story. A son and a father, two mr anyone, estranged, travel together from Montana to Nebraska to get a prize the old man says he has won. A million dollars prize. No less. The story it is pretty all here.
But the movie is much more, and that's what makes this movie fascinating.
Cinematography is excellent, acting is very very good and the couple, father and son, are capable to connect you with their own world, different from the other, siding with each and none.
It is a travel of black and white, the travel into the deep America, the Midwest, its dynamics, its way to be unique, likeable or not. It's about its people and their way to be.
It's a trip to reconnect what it is possible, if anything, in a countryside that seems out of the world.

A little end note here, the old man is a great Bruce Dern who gives a performance like no other.
Watch it, it is extremely enlightening on certain American, on human relations and indeed is incredibly well acted.
