Intrigue

Alabama; 1969: The death of a clan's estranged wife and mother brings together two very different families. Do the scars of the past hide differences that will tear them apart, or expose truths that could lead to unexpected collisions?

A young man (Robert Duvall) in the 1940s raises a family in Alabama after his wife (Tippi Hedren) leaves him for an Englishman (John Hurt) and moves to England. When the wife dies, she leaves a request to be brought back to Alabama to be buried, and at that point, the man hasn't seen her in nearly thirty years. The two families, her original family she abandoned, and her English family, meet and make an attempt to adjust to each other, with uneven results.—alfiehitchie
