From a 2025 point-of-view, “The Straight Story” seems flat-out weird.
The only movie I’ve rated a perfect 5 stars on first viewing.
This was also one of the last movies I rented from Netflix’s DVD by mail service, which seemed fitting—snail mail for a snail movie.
Badalamenti’s score really is excellent, too.
