Richard Farnsworth, the actor who played Mr. Street, died a year and a half after its release. In the wind in the wheat field on the sunny and rainy night, in the dialogue with the people he met, every time he saw When the flashing red, it is due to their own nostalgia and stubbornness for everything. There was a young man drinking beer who casually approached him and asked him when he felt the worst at his age. He smiled and said, "I think of when I was young and strong."

Whether it is the sunshine of the starry sky in the wheat field in the summer night or the short thunderstorm, it is a natural transformation. The gentle ending given to the stubborn journey at the end is also the tenderness given by the creation.

The Straight Story quotes

  • Alvin Straight: There's no one knows your life better than a brother that's near your age. He knows who you are and what you are better than anyone on earth. My brother and I said some unforgivable things the last time we met, but, I'm trying to put that behind me... and this trip is a hard swallow of my pride. I just hope I'm not too late... a brother's a brother.

  • Alvin Straight: Anger, vanity, you mix that together with liquor, you've got two brothers that haven't spoken in ten years. Ah, whatever it was that made me and Lyle so mad... don't matter anymore. I want to make peace, I want to sit with him, look up at the stars... like we used to do, so long ago.
