    Storyline

    Edit
    The film is based on A.G. Sulzberger's 2010 New York Times article "For Kodachrome Fans, Road Ends at Photo Lab in Kansas" about a father and son who take a road trip to Kansas in order to develop photographs at Kodak's last Kodachrome lab before it closes its doors forever. —variety

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The lab in question, Dwayne's Photography, is still in business. They just don't process Kodachrome anymore.
    • Goofs
      When Zoe examines Matt's old record collection, you can see several dozen LPs piled in a stack (in their sleeves, fortunately). No fan/collector would ever have kept his/her vinyls piled on one another horizontally, especially someone who eventually goes into the music business, it damages the grooves. You keep them upright (or vertical as it's called).
    • Quotes

      Ben: We're all so frightened by time, the way it moves on and the way things disappear. That's why we're photographers. We're preservationists by nature. We take pictures to stop time, to commit moments to eternity. Human nature made tangible.

    • Crazy credits
      Shots by photographer Steve McCurry can be seen during the end credits.

    enjoyable and touching
    A man out of luck in his job at a recordlabel is surprised at work by his father's nurse. She tells him his father is dying and wants to take one last trip to Kansas to get his remaining kodachrome photo's developed. Needless to say the son is less than excited to go on a trip with his bad-tempered dad but he does it anyway. Though fairly predictable this is an enjoyable movie. The leads, Jason Sudeikis, Ed Harris and Elisabeth Olsen give fine performances. Especially Sudeikis excells in a role you don't really expect from him. The movie has a nice soundtrack and is nicely shot. Recommended
