In this gritty, gut-wrenching account of rural America, Jessica Lange (A Thousand Acres) and Sam Shepard (Thunderheart) are Jewell and Gil Ivy. They work the land in America’s heartland, on a farm that has bound their family together for generations. For Jewel and Gil, the land has always been their life, so when government bureaucrats decide to take it all away, the Ivy’s decide to stay on their land and fight the greedy land grabbers. The great character actors Wilford Brimley (Cocoon) and Matt Clark (White Lightning) co-star in this classic drama written by William D. Wittliff (Raggedy Man) and directed by Richard Pearce (Heartland). Academy Award® Nominee for Best Actress in a Leading Role (Lange).
