The Old Man and The Gun GFT
7 – 13 December, 2018
Based on a true story, this funny drama from A Ghost Story director David Lowery, follows Forrest Tucker (Robert Redford) after his audacious escape from San Quentin at the age of 70, and the unprecedented string of heists that confounded authorities and enchanted the public. Wrapped up in the pursuit are detective John Hunt (Casey Affleck), who becomes captivated with Forrest’s commitment to his craft, and a woman (Sissy Spacek), who loves him in spite of his chosen profession.
In terms of enduring cinema legends, Redford ranks amongst the best, so I expect nothing but excellence.
