LUCKY follows the spiritual journey of a 90-year-old atheist and the quirky characters that inhabit his off the map desert town. Having out lived and out smoked all of his contemporaries, the fiercely independent Lucky finds himself at the precipice of life, thrust into a journey of self exploration, leading towards that which is so often unattainable: enlightenment. Acclaimed character actor John Carroll Lynch’s directorial debut “Lucky”, is at once a love letter to the life and career of Harry Dean Stanton as well as a meditation on morality, loneliness, spirituality, and human connection.

MOVIE REVIEW

The late Harry Dean Stanton turns in a fine performance as the title character in Lucky, a non-comedic version of Seinfeld in that it’s a movie about not much at all. Mildly entertaining but instantly forgettable, Lucky may appeal to fans of mildly entertaining but instantly forgettable movies (surprise: those people exist) but few others.
