The Old Man And The Gun
A very nice little film about career criminal Forrest Tucker, who (in his 60s) robbed more than sixty banks after escaping from San Quentin prison in a homemade rowboat. Some liberties are taken with the actual events on which the film is based, but fewer than usual for this sort of film. Robert Redford is as charming as he was in his youth, and is perfect in this part.
Also has Sissy Spacek, Danny Glover, Tom Waits and Casey Affleck. Worth a look. 7/10
