Screen legend Paul Newman (Twilight) delivers a brilliant performance as Sully, an out-of-work, hard-headed and hard-working construction worker with bad knees and a worse attitude. When the son he walked out on, Dylan Wash (Betsy’s Wedding), shows up with his grandson, Sully is forced to deal with emotions he’d prefer to forget. Sully’s overbearing landlord, Jessica Tandy (Driving Miss Daisy), in one of her last performances, and his ex-boss’ wife, Melanie Griffith (Paradise), are the women in his life that get to see a bit of his softer side. But it’s the new relationship with his grandson that really gets to him. This touching slice-of-life story garnered Academy Award nominations for Newman and writer/director Robert Benton (Kramer vs. Kramer, Places in the Heart), and features Bruce Willis (Billy Bathgate), Pruitt Taylor Vince (China Moon), Gene Saks (A Thousand Clowns), Josef Sommer (Still of the Night), Philip Seymour Hoffman (The Master) and Philip Bosco (Angie).
