Synopsis – What to Expect from “Tender Mercies”
Tender Mercies is a 1983 American drama film directed by Bruce Beresford and written by Horton Foote. The film stars Robert Duvall, Tess Harper, Betty Buckley, Wilford Brimley, Ellen Barkin, and Allan Hubbard.
The movie follows Mac Sledge (Robert Duvall), a broken-down, hard-drinking country singer who has lost his career, his family, and his faith. After hitting rock bottom, Mac finds himself stranded in a small Texas town, where he is taken in by Rosa Lee (Tess Harper), a kind-hearted widow who helps him to get back on his feet. Despite their age difference, the two form a strong bond, and Mac slowly begins to rebuild his life.
As Mac puts his life back together, he finds himself embroiled in a custody battle between Rosa Lee’s estranged son, Sonny (Allan Hubbard), and her daughter-in-law, Dixie (Betty Buckley). Despite their differences, Mac and Dixie develop a strong connection, and Mac finds himself torn between his newfound love for Rosa Lee and his growing feelings for Dixie.
Ultimately, Mac must choose between the two women and decide which path he will take. Will he stay with Rosa Lee and help her to raise Sonny? Or will he follow his heart and pursue a relationship with Dixie? Along the way, Mac learns the importance of forgiveness, love, and tender mercies.
