Texasville
“It's not a place... It's a state of mind.”
Summer, 1984: 30 years after Duane captained the high school football team and Jacy was homecoming queen, this Texas town near Wichita Falls prepares for its centennial. Oil prices are down, banks are failing, and Duane's $12 million in debt. His wife Karla drinks too much, his children are always in trouble, and he tom-cats around with the wives of friends. Jacy's back in town, after a mildly successful acting career, life in Italy, and the death of her son. Folks assume Duane and Jacy will resume their high school romance. And Sonny is "tired in his mind," causing worries for his safety. Can these friends find equilibrium in middle age?
A poignant, slow-burn drama exploring the faded dreams and lingering regrets of small-town life. It feels like a dusty photo album, capturing the weariness of middle age against a backdrop of economic decline and personal disillusionment.
