Manglehorn

97 minutes 2014 5.5

 

Once again, director Gordon Green visits Texas, where he tells the story of A.J. Manglehorn, a middle-aged locksmith who mourns his lost love. It turns out that Manglehorn is different from the one he used to be, and it bothers him. The film explores the complicated psyche of an elderly man, who is alienated in society and loves only his cat, Fanny.

Manglehorn takes director David Gordon Green ("Pineapple Express", "Prince Avalanche") back to his indie roots, as well as with renowned Hollywood actors and Oscar winners Al Pacino ("Scarface", "Godfather") and Holly Hunter ("The Piano", "O Brother, Where Art Thou?") In the lead roles. 

This results in a low-key drama with brilliant actor performance.

The film is not playable outside of Norway
