Ulee's Gold (1997)

Ulee’s Gold: Directed by Victor Nunez. With Peter Fonda, Patricia Richardson, Christine Dunford, Tom Wood. A reclusive beekeeper slowly pulls his dysfunctional family back together, but not without having to fight his son’s previous dastardly cohorts.

“Peter Fonda should have won the Oscar for this film. After he didnu0026#39;t, I boycotted the movies for a full 12 months. Fonda gave the performance of a lifetime in this film about a solitary Florida bee-keeper trying to keep whatu0026#39;s left of his family together.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is not light entertainment. This is realistic film-making at its best.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThere is no Hollywood u0026quot;fixu0026quot; ending. These are real people with really serious problems trying to make their way through with the least amount of damage.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eForget the Academy….see this film and ask yourself who deserved the Best Actor Oscar….”
