Lucky (15)

stroud film society presents: Lucky

Harry Dean Stanton, in his final film, plays Lucky a crabby, no-nonsense, ex ww2 vet whose daily routine is a mix of cigarettes, press-ups, daytime tv and crosswords interspersed with time hanging out in his local community. It’s a film about coming to terms with one’s own mortality, dealing with choices made in life but at it’s heart a warm, touching, powerful, often amusing film that celebrates life. It also includes a giant tortoise called President Theodore Roosevelt!
