David Lowery's crime biopic stars Robert Redford as Forrest Tucker, a real-life bank robber who found himself wanted by police across the United States for a string of prison escapes and robberies. We first meet Tucker in the early 80s. He's 74 and has been evading police for two years since his last audacious prison break. But he's not taking things easy and laying low. That's not his bag. This suave old geezer has a somehow enamouring way of walking into a bank, charmingly informing the teller that he has a gun that he doesn't want to use, and walking out with a big old sack of cash. In fact, he's just done exactly that when he meets Jewel (Sissy Spacek), an enchanting farmer who he quickly trusts so much that he decides to reveal to her his true identity. Tucker, alongside spending time on Jewel's farm enjoying her more simplistic way of life, embarks on a string of heists. On the case is local detective John Hunt (Casey Affleck), and Tucker soon finds himself torn between the peaceful life he's enjoyed with Jewel and his old criminal ways. Also starring Danny Glover and Tom Waits.
