With as much dignity as he could muster, the Old Man gathered up the sad remains of his shattered Major Award. Later that night, alone in the backyard, he buried it next to the garage. Now I could never be sure, but I thought that I heard the sound of "Taps" being played. Gently.

I just love this movie!

Thanks for that pic of the old man holding his broken award....the look on his face is priceless...Darren Mcgavin, as an actor, can say more with the looks on his face, than a lot of other actors can say in a whole movie with dialogue...

The scene where Randy is acting like a litte piggy at the table, when the mom tried to get him eat, and his face is smeared with Mashed potatoes, is priceless...the old man looks at Randy, and without saying a word, just gives him a look of absolute disgust...
