TITLE Twilight (1998)

ALT__TITLE

DISABILITY Cancer

COUNTRY USA

LENGTH 94

GENRE Thriller

DIRECTOR Robert Benton

CAST Paul Newman

Gene Hackman

Susan Sarandon

NOTES All the right ingredients here but somehow it doesn't work at

least as a thriller.

The two old men, Newman and Hackman, get involved in a

little criminal investigation. Harry is an ex-cop and alcoholic.

Jack is dying from cancer (and has had his penis shot off).

The thriller element doesn't work because there's too much

nostalgic talk -- talking about being old.
