Decoration Day

Laurence Fishburne,James Garner,Bill Cobbs,Judith Ivey

A cantankerous widower (Garner) who is virtually living the life of a recluse is forced to rejoin his community when his Godchild (Skaggs) gets in trouble and a childhood friend (Cobbs), a black tenant farmer, refuses to belatedly accept the Medal of Honor for bravery in World War II.—John Sacksteder
