Fonda and Redford will star as Addie Moore and Louis Waters, a widow and widower who've lived next to each other for years. The pair have almost no relationship, but that all changes when Addie tries to make a connection with her neighbor.
A rare quality in film, quiet grace...two marvelous actors with their chemistry undimmed, with a deep understanding of craft and a deep trust in each other.
Made with care and conviction as it explores this unexpected relationship, "Our Souls at Night" understands both what changes in people as they age and what remains the same.
Both Redford and Fonda are charming, delicate and convincing as Addie Moore and Louis Waters, the couple who find each other at the tail end of their lives. They are directed with sophistication and without a drop of melodrama or sentimentality ...
The director here, Ritesh Batra, has a tendency to invest almost every shot with about 16-tons worth of portent, smothering the humanism that Redford and Fonda are working hard to put across.
Fonda and Redford play this potentially sleepy material with spry, generous adroitness, genuinely listening and subtly playing off each other's reactions and body language.
Batra lets the well-worked chemistry Redford and Fonda share do the heavy lifting... they still bring out in each other a warmth and an easygoing manner, as if they've always been and always will be like this.
