That is the performance of Harry Dean Stanton's career and I'm including Paris, Texas (which is a better film) - he deserves a nomination, clearly.
The film is a monument to him, I can't think of a goodbye performance as perfect as this - maybe The Shootist would be one, Stanton is in every frame of this. John Caroll Lynch's directs in a sparse, uncluttered way, some ace supporting performances (Lynch, Skerritt, Livingston) and the film addresses stuff that American film never touches - aging, death, perseverance, fear.
Nobody is gonna care because you know, they don't blow up enough stuff in it, but you should see it because you're movie lovers
