MOVIE:
Cantankerous old buzzard Woody Grant (Bruce Dern) can barely walk down the street of his home in Billings, Montana without stopping for a drink. So when Woody receives a sweepstakes notice in the mail and insists on making a 750-mile trip to Lincoln, Nebraska to collect his prize, it falls to baffled son David (Will Forte) to accompany him. During a stop in their Nebraska hometown, word gets out about Woody's fortune, first making him a hero, then later, the target of predatory people.
Dern, as the cantankerous yet harmless Woody, delivers a stirring performance, despite the fact that the man he’s playing is not entirely there. Woody is convincingly fragile and unstoppable all at once .
