The Flamingo Rising

1960s dreamer Hubert T. Lee moves his wife Edna and two children to Florida, where he builds the world's largest drive-in right on the beach—directly across the street from a funeral home. The noisy establishment is a hit with locals, but infuriates funeral director Turner Knight. The animosity is further complicated by a growing friendship between Knight and Edna, and the budding romance between Lee's son and Knight's daughter. Stars William Hurt, Elizabeth McGovern, and Brian Benben.
