In 1930s Tennessee, a reclusive hermit stuns his small town by arranging a funeral for himself while he’s still alive. Robert Duvall is the guarded man behind the plan, and Bill Murray brings sly charm to the funeral director happy to turn the strange request into a public event. As word spreads, the gathering starts to pull old rumors and buried history into the open, with Sissy Spacek among the faces from his past. Drawn from a Southern legend, the film moves between porch-story humor, local gossip, and the secrets surrounding a man who has lived apart for years.
