Earl Pilcher, Jr., runs an equipment rental outfit in Arkansas, lives with his wife and kids and parents, and rarely takes off his gimme cap. His mother dies, leaving a letter explaining he's not her natural son, but the son of a black woman who died in childbirth. Plus, he has a half-brother Ray, in Chicago, she wants him to visit. Earl makes the trip, initially receiving a cold welcome from Ray and Ray's son, Virgil. His birth mother's sister, Aunt T., an aged and blind matriarch, takes Earl in tow and insists that the family open up to him.

開始看標題、以為不好看、結果很好看。感覺有點諷刺以前的歧視黑人的政策。一個體內流淌著黑人血液的白人、在黑人社區受到壓制、歧視。有點Crow Jim(歧視白人主義)的感覺。

这个片子让人想到Hillbilly Elegy，最大的特点是一个老年女配角在一个剧本底子不好的片子贡献了殿堂级的演技；其实Aunt T的饰演者比Ray的饰演者还小3岁，怪不得总感觉Aunt T精力充沛而Ray总是疲态尽显；Aunt T真的是女性楷模；这个片子最ironic的一点就是原以为是发现messed up的家庭历史之旅，结果发现历史只有Earl不知道；这个片子不成功的地方还是铺垫不足所以有太... 这个片子让人想到Hillbilly Elegy，最大的特点是一个老年女配角在一个剧本底子不好的片子贡献了殿堂级的演技；其实Aunt T的饰演者比Ray的饰演者还小3岁，怪不得总感觉Aunt T精力充沛而Ray总是疲态尽显；Aunt T真的是女性楷模；这个片子最ironic的一点就是原以为是发现messed up的家庭历史之旅，结果发现历史只有Earl不知道；这个片子不成功的地方还是铺垫不足所以有太多突然丢包袱的桥段以及无意义的桥段，比如Earl crash酒吧被抬走又过一晚上homeless的生活的桥段好像很多余，Ray突然说出小时候向Earl扔石头的桥段也有点离谱，但是前面铺垫很不足，甚至Earl看起来像是deep south里more open-minded那种的；上课的环节也有点多，Aunt T上课还好，Earl给Virgil上课那段太尬了 (展开)

同母异父的两兄弟重新认识了解，重归于好的温情故事。其中有句台词印象深刻，“人活着，或者你自己有所期待，或者让你爱的人有所期待”。家有一老就是一宝，片中的阿姨也是极可爱的。
