The Flamingo Rising

Based on the novel by Larry Baker, a 1960s dreamer named Hubert T. Lee moves his wife Edna and two children to Florida, where he builds the world's larges drive-in movie theater directly across the street from a funeral parlor.

The noisy establishment is a hit with locals, but infuriates the funeral director Turner Knight. The animosity is further complicated by a growing friendship between Knight and Edna, and the budding romance between Lee's son and Knight's daughter.

Starring William Hurt, Brian Benben, and Angela Bettis.
