For the past 40 years, Felix Bush (Robert Duvall) has lived as a hermit deep in the Tennessee woods. His clothes tattered, his manner rough and his expressions buried behind a massive white beard, he's an unnerving figure when he stalks into town with his mule, shotgun in hand. Some say he's killed men with his bare hands.
One day Bush walks into the local funeral parlour and announces to Frank Quinn (Bill Murray), "'Bout time for me to get low. Down to business. I need a funeral." More importantly, he wants a funeral party, an event that will draw all his friends and enemies to his shack in the woods for a final reckoningand he wants to throw the party while he's still alive.
Lovely movie. Some of the best performances I've ever seen by Robert Duvall and Bill Murray. A movie that makes you feel every emotion you have.
Fantastic movie...had me crying and laughing all at the same time...Bill Murray gives his best performance.
