King's Road

Overview

A moody vignette of Midwestern angst that centers on the ambivalent relationship of three days in the life of two brothers. Danny Marelli, the star athlete in a rural Ohio town desperate to learn if he has won a full athletic scholarship to Ohio State. When no letter arrives, he vents his frustrations on his younger brother Frankie, damaging the car they jointly own and hurting him in a tussle, and how the younger brother must painfully learn his own values apart from his insensitive brother.
