Preview, “Sundance” robs again in “The Old Man & the Gun”

Robert Redford’s a legendary AARP-qualified robber of banks, Sissy Spacek the lady of an appropriate age he takes a shine to and Casey Affleck the lawman chasing him in this wistful, whimsical tale of Forrest Tucker — not the Western actor, but the bank robber and escaped con — who slipped out of San Quentin and resumed a life of gentlemanly charm and crime.

Elisabeth Moss, Keith Carradine, Danny Glover, the riches know no end in this David Lowery film, based on an article about the real-life Tucker.

“The Old Man & the Gun” goes into limited release this coming Awards Season — Oct. 5.
