Starring: Felix Bush (Robert Duvall), Robert Quinn (Bill "SNL" Murray), Buddy (Lucas Black), Maddie (Sissy "Carrie" Spacek), Gerald "Simon and Simon" Macraney, etc.
Felix Bush, an ornery,old, shotgun-wielding hermit (Robert Duvall), widely disliked and gossiped about, comes out of a nearly forty year seclusion because he wants to have a "funeral party" while he is still alive and to invite anyone who has a story to tell about him; whether positive or negative. Bush also has a shameful secret which has bothered him for the last four decades. Meanwhile, a money-hungry funeral director (Bill Murray) is all too eager to benefit off of Felix Bush's 'funeral' plan. At the same time, his younger assistant has his misgivings about exploiting the old eccentric. I really enjoyed this movie. Perhaps one of Duvall's most memorable characters since he played "The Great Santini".
