Harry Dean Stanton saved the best for last in his final role as a crusty ninety-year old loner whose failing health forces him to come to terms with life, mortality, and the yawning abyss that awaits us all. Austere desert locations underscore his inner journey with wide open skies looking down upon sere cacti (and one determined old tortoise) and a vision of “Eden” which taunts him from a distance. A literate script blends gentle humour with sobering insights and a cast of aging familiar faces (Tom Skerritt, James Darren, Ed Begley Jr.) prove they still have what it takes.
