It’s the annual Clint Eastwood movie, and he’s both acting and directing for the first time since Gran Torino ten years ago.
In a weird echo of Robert Redford’s The Old Man and the Gun, it’s a codger true-crime drama based on a newspaper article, in this case Sam Dolnick‘s The Sinaloa Cartel’s 90-Year-Old Drug Mule. That pretty much gives you the plot, with Eastwood playing a WWII veteran who became the world’s oldest and most prolific drug courier
