Another Harvest Moon on DVD

Another Harvest Moon Four senior citizens struggle to reconcile a lifetime of memories and a fierce sense of self-sufficiency in the twilight of their lives. Every morning, nursing-home residents Frank (Ernest Borgnine), June (Piper Laurie), Alice (Doris Roberts) and Ella (Anne Meara) come together at the table for a game of cards. They may have their fair share of disagreements, though the love and support they offer each other serves as a shining light in uncertain times. When World War II veteran Frank realizes that he has forgotten what his beloved late wife looked like, he begins to fear that another stroke is on the way and rues the thought of burdening his family. Shortly thereafter, he asks his son Jeffrey (Richard Schiff) to bring him his old pistol, a relic from the war that helps him to remember his old brothers in arms. Meanwhile, Alice and Ella begin to suspect that Frank has other reasons for wanting the gun and clash while attempting to determine how to handle the situation. Though a Labor Day camping trip with his children Jeffrey and Vickie (Cybill Shepherd) and sensitive grandson Jack (Cameron Monaghan) offers Frank a brief escape from his highly-predictable daily routine, a trip back to the nursing home reminds him that those fleeting moments of pure joy will only get fewer and farther between as his health deteriorates..."A well-crafted showcase for vivid performance.
