'The Old Man & the Gun': A tale for Baby Boomers . . .

Who still seek their youth through stars of their past. Redford, Spacek,and Affleck (the good one, not Ben) play believable characters in telling the story of Forrest Tucker (not the actor), one of America's most prolific bank robbers. Danny Glover and Tom Waits are his crew and do a commendable job in their roles.

The Redford charm is there is full force and the script carries all the characters well. Kudos. The story is simple as we study Tucker's methods, his late-life romance, and his devotion to his crew. As I watch Redford I wonder if each role is his last. His wrinkles have overtaken his appearance and it is sad to see.

This one is a mild one and contains nothing offensive to anyone. Perfect for a Baby Boomer couple to take in or at least see it at home.
