LAST VEGAS

LAST VEGAS
by Jon Turteltaub
Country: USA
Year: 2013
Duration: 106'


Four retired friends, Billy, Paddy, Archie and Sam, have known each other since forever; when Billy, the diehard bachelor of the group, finally decides to marry his companion (who is obviously much younger than him), the four buddies leave for Las Vegas with the intention of reliving their days of glory, ignoring their real age. But they are forced to acknowledge that Sin City has changed a lot since they were last there and that their friendship isn’t as rock-solid as they thought. Will our elderly heroes manage to rule once more over what used to be their kingdom?

Declaration

film director

“It’s a coming-of-age story. Four seventy-year-old guys go to Vegas and get a big dose of how young they’re not and how old they’re not. We all struggle with the idea of acting your age. We’re always growing. We’re always learning.”
