Tender Mercies is a gently made film and an incredibly effective film that examines the life and the redemption of an ex-country singer Mac Sledge portrayed brilliantly by Robert Duvall. It is a quiet film, but an incredibly emotionally effective film. It is deeply moving as well honestly effective as well. It is a great wonderful that is simply a wonderful experience to watch.
