6 The old mAn And The Gun

A late-career swansong for Robert Redford, who said this would be his last film. It is based on the true story of Forrest Tucker – an elderly thief who escapes from San Quentin before embarking on a string of heists across Texas. Sissy Spacek and Casey Affleck bring suitably dramatic support to a light but heartfelt film that fully honours Redford’s storied ’60s reputation.
