ULEE’S GOLD: As a stoic, widowed Florida beekeeper, Peter Fonda (at 57) is reminiscent of the quiet strength of his father. Peter is caring for his sometimes difficult granddaughters because his son is in prison. And Helen, his daughter in law, is drugged out in Orlando. Peter leaves his demanding business to try to save Helen’s life and fight some bad guys.

The story is suspenseful and coolly underplayed. Writer director Victor Nunez uses it as an excuse to provide examples of compassion and self-sacrifice, and also to describe the swampy backwater and its people with an acute and sensitive eye. Beekeeping works superbly as a metaphor for tradition and decency vs. the fast money of the new Florida. For audiences, it’s all pure gold. Recommended for mature youth and adults.
