The story

John Denver plays the country singer son of Annie Nations (Jessica Tandy), a woman passionately committed to both her farmland in the Blue Ridge Mountains and to the revered memory of her late husband, Hector (Hume Cronyn). Ultimately, she must make a life-changing decision, to accede to her son's wish that she move off the Mountain and sell her land to a real estate developer, or to spend her remaining years cloaked in her memories. According to Hume Cronyn, the older people living in the mountains led lives "which were to some degree narrow, parochial, insular - but also enormously rich.
