What was the film

[Kristen D]

Never seen it, one of the guys in the office wants to know what film this is,

He doesn't know the year or the names of any actors.

Its about a guy who drives a tractor for some significant distance between two points in american, he cannot remember why (he may have been ill?) there was some specific personal reason for going to this place.

The actor was a big bloke, oldish....

Ian.

I think the actor was Ernest Borgnine( please excuse spelling) Cant remember title of film though, Hope this helps.

Could be The Straight Story starring Richard Farnsworth.

 

[laced.lips]

Yep, the forgetful aging fool says its the straight story.

 

[buckaboy16]

It is 'The Straight Story' with Richard Farnsworth.

 

[Rafe]

David Lynch's finest hour and a tribute to the talents of the late Richard Farnsworth. One of Channel 4's last films before their distribution arm went bust I think.

there is another similar film featuring ernest borgnine so rifleman wasn't too far off the mark
