The War

(1994)Directed by Jon Avnet126 min · PG-13Drama, War

A silence has settled over the Simmons house in Mississippi in the 1970s, and Stu (Elijah Wood) and his sister Lidia (Lexi Randall) can only guess at its cause. Their father Stephen (Kevin Costner) has come home from Vietnam, and Jon Avnet watches the family circle around a man who no longer fits the house he left. Out in the neighborhood, Stu has bullies of his own to face, and the family is the thing at risk.
