Synopsis
Written by playwright Bill Bozzone, Full Moon in Blue Water
stars Gene Hackman as Floyd, the owner of a small bar in a
coastal Texas town. Floyd's emotional baggage is awesome:
he has never recovered from the death of his wife, he is saddled
with his senile father "The General" (Burgess Meredith), and
creditors hound him at his fireside. Good-hearted bus driver Louise
(Teri Garr) tries her best to offer moral and financial support, as does
Floyd's right-hand man, former mental patient Jimmy (Elias Koteas).
Strange and unexpected events follow, the upshot of which may leave
Floyd even worse off than before. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
