Tender Mercies  is a 1982 film that chronicles the redemption of a strung out country singer in Texas. There's an awkwardness that slowly is revealed as a quiet dignity in this film, as the landscape, a love story, and the past lives on the characters all collide. It's worth a watch if you don't mind something that slows down the world and zooms its lens in on a few lives that seek wholeness. 

Waitress at diner : Excuse me, sir..  [approaches Walter and Dude]  Could you please keep your voices down - This is a family restaurant. Walter Sobchak : Oh please,  dear ? For your information, the Supreme Court has roundly rejected prior restraint! The Dude : Walter, this is not a First Amendment thing, man. Waitress at diner : If you can't lower your voices, I'm gonna have to ask you to leave. Walter Sobchak : Lady, I got buddies who died  face-down in the muck  so that you and I could enjoy this family restaurant! The Dude : Alright, I'm outta here  [drops money and (inadvertently) a joint on counter, subtly picks up the joint] Walter Sobchak :  (talking to Dude as he leaves)  Oh come on, Dude - Don't walk away, man! C'mon, this affects  all of us , man! Our  basic freedoms !
