My wife and I mostly wanted to watch this movie because we are Holly Hunter fans, she always does a great job of creating a character and her role here is no exception. It is set in N. Georgia, then involves a road trip to New Orleans through Mississippi. Most of it was filmed in Mississippi, Hunter was about 57 or 58 and skinny as a rail.
Seven years earlier her son had died of a self-inflicted gunshot. She had never really gotten over it, she still wonders if she somehow was at fault. What might she have done differently? Things change when she finds out her son's former friend and college mate has a successful chain of hot-dog businesses. As she digs, including the website for the business, she realizes that friend stole the idea, including the whole back story and the name of the business, from her son. She is positive because she had typed up the entire business proposal for his graduate school class.
So she has to dig more, she has to find out what really happened that night seven years earlier when a bunch of friends had gotten together. She has to take the road trip to New Orleans.
We found the viewing worthwhile. As I already mentioned here, Holly Hunter really gives a great performance, she is a tiny woman but very menacing when the need arises.
