This is right up there in our high quality movies list (and we own it). Artfully written and directed, Peter Fonda in the performance of his career, the complexity and simplicity of life, incredible cinematography. Fonda is a Vietnam vet beekeeper with an exploded family.
Just the juxtaposition of the slowness and methodicalness of the cycle of beekeeping and extracting honey vs. the harshness and starkness of the human drama is worth seeing here.
Director: Victor Nunez
Cast: Peter Fonda, Patricia Richardson, Jessica Biel, J. Kenneth Campbell, Christine Dunford, Steven Flynn, Dewey Weber, Tom Wood, Vanessa Zima
