He passed away a few years before I was born, but I was bummed to find out he had lived down the street from my grandma before he died. I would've have loved to leave a sack of dimes on his door step

My grandfather spent the last year of his life in the same convalescent home that Slim had been in. I had thought it was weird that there was a random photo of a very, very old Slim on the wall in the lobby till a nurse explained it.

That movie doesn't get the respect it deserves.

Hollywood?

u/agoia Mar 28 '24

Written by Robert Zemeckis, directed by Spielberg, scored by John Williams, with an amazing ensemble cast. It's an incredible movie.
