Boon manipulates the eleven-year-old Lucius into "borrowing" his grandfather's 1905 Winton Flyer; they take it from Missouri to Memphis for adventure (and so that he can visit his prostitute girlfriend). Based on William Faulkner's posthumous final novel; "reiver" is a word meaning thief. Received Oscar nominations for Best Supporting Actor and Best Original Score.
