Review of The Last Movie Star (2018) by Kelly K — 08 Jun 2018
A Burt Reynolds bio...sort of. Burt plays an over the hill actor named Vic ?????. He's old and in questionable health and living alone having just lost hid aging dog. Living in L.A. he is invited to a film festival in Nashville featuring his movies.
Off to Tennessee he goes to find glory but instead finds disappointment. Flashbacks of Burt in his most popular films are highlights in this moving film about aging. I would have liked to have seen Sally Fields in the role as Vic's one true love who Vic visits in a nursing home where she lives with dementia.
Its a very touching scene. Burt is superb in what may be his last movie.
