Peter Fonda received a richly deserved Oscar nomination for his superb performance as Ulysses “Ulee” Jackson, a Florida beekeeper forced to put his splintered family back together. Ulee is a Vietnam veteran whose wife died several years ago, a blow he’s still learning to live with. His son Jimmy (Tom Wood) is in prison, and his daughter-in-law Helen (Christine Dunford) ran away, leaving Ulee to raise their two daughters by himself. Ulee is a quiet man who has a hard time displaying warmth and does not always deal well with the rebellious children put in his care.
Will call tickets may be picked up at The Cary Box Office beginning one hour prior to the movie.
