Lucky plot

Lucky follows the spiritual journey of a 90-year-old atheist and the wayward individuals who live in his remote desert town. He has already outlived all his peers and the fiercely independent Lucky is on the precipice of his life. He is drawn into a journey of self-discovery that leads to that which is often so unattainable: enlightenment.

A very special beautiful film. You don't have to look here for a quick script. This is about the rhythm of a very tough 90-something. Certain rituals keep him young. Morning exercises, puzzles, walking and a visit to a diner and a pub. Nicely slow rendered with a beautiful population of a small village where everyone knows and respects everyone. And where cacti and tortoises everyone survives. But in the end everything will come to an end and you have to find peace in that even though your name is Lucky.

“Realism is one thing. It is customary to accept a situation as it is and be willing to act accordingly.” Dictionaries have a habit of disguising simple meanings as tile wisdom. In fact, Lucky does nothing more than attempt to complete his crossword puzzle when his search for synonyms takes him to the core of his personality.

Ninety-year-old Lucky (Harry Dean Stanton) is headstrong, cynical, but also very honest. Always and everywhere he is looking for the essence of things. To the knowledge that one day everything will disappear, that the 'soul' does not exist. You could call Lucky an atheist. During the film, however, that term is not used for a moment. The emphasis is not on labels and categories, but on Lucky's humanity. When we are old, and forced to face our death, our illusions and dreams are taken away from us. We look at the world as we see it at that moment. Everything else has been swallowed up by time.

A film with a simple story that will leave you empathetic until the end. Very handsome in itself, but one does have the icon of his time Harry Dean Stanton. A nice last performance to the inevitable transience.
