Synopsis

Synopsis

Our take

Reflecting on ageing while celebrating life through carefree humor, Lucky sees the late Harry Dean Stanton in his first leading role since Wenders’ Paris, Texas. A moving love letter to one of America’s great character actors, starring his friend (and longtime collaborator!) David Lynch.
