- QuizRichard Farnsworth was terminally ill with bone cancer during the shooting of the film, which had caused the paralysis of his legs as shown in the film. He actually took the role out of admiration for Alvin Straight, and astonished his co-workers with his tenacity during production. Because of the pain of his disease, Farnsworth committed suicide the following year, at the age of 80.
- BlooperAlvin is shown crossing the Mississippi River on the Black Hawk Bridge at Lansing heading westward into Iowa, instead of eastward into Wisconsin. This bridge, in real-life, isn't in the vicinity of Prairie du Chien; rather, it would have been the Marquette-Joliet Bridge that he crossed.

Recensione in evidenza
This is not a movie for fans of the usual eerie Lynch stuff. Rather, it's for those who either appreciate a good story, or have grown tired of the run-of-the-mill stuff with overt sentimentalism and Oprah-ish "This is such a wonderful movie! You must see it!"-semantics (tho' she IS right, for once!).
The story unfolds flawlessly, and we are taken along a journey that, I believe, most of us will come to recognize at some time. A compassionate, existentialist journey where we make amends för our past when approaching ourt inevitable demise.
Acting is without faults, cinematography likewise (occasionally quite brilliant!), and the dialogue leaves out just enough for the viewer to grasp the details od the story.
A warm movie. Not excessively sentimental.
