This is a sweet little film that a grandson made about his grandfather after his death. The old man's life is recounted through his correspondence--which, oddly, always seems to be about cars. Perhaps this was done to show how the man was emotionally constricted or he was just obsessed with cars. Either way, as the film progresses, the man's freedom dwindles away and he can no longer drive the car he loves. Following these odd letters, the film ends with a little epilogue by his grandson.
While none of this seemed super-profound, the film was a nice gentle short film and it was accentuated by excellent emotive music and a nice use of archival footage and letters. Style-wise, this was a lovely film and a nice tribute to a man most would never have heard about otherwise.
