Secondhand Lions (Robert Duvall and Michael Caine)

 

Secondhand Lions is a is a heartwarming coming-of-age story about a boy whose unreliable mother leaves him on a ranch with his two great uncles, former globetrotting adventurers who still have wild streaks. Set in rural Texas in the 1960s, these great uncles chew tobacco (and offer some to the boy) and shoot rifles whenever salesmen try and ply their wares. There's also a knife fight between the great uncles and a group of greaser teenagers, and some war scenes and chase scenes that come up in the form of flashbacks. Beyond this, though, Secondhand Lions is a fun and touching story that raises questions about what it means to grow up and to grow old.

This is relatively unknown. The Man from Earth.

The whole movie transpired in one room, and revolves around one man convincing his peers that he is a cro-magnon man who lived more than 14,000 years. There is no special effect or anything, just pure dialogue and yet it is quite enjoyable becuase of it's intellectual arguments.
