Drama 'Lucky' follows the spiritual journey of a 90-year-old atheist. Having outlived and outsmoked all of his contemporaries, the fiercely independent Lucky finds himself at the precipice of life, thrust into a journey of self-exploration, leading towards that which is so often unattainable: enlightenment.

United States	Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"Lynch knows how to frame a shot and tell a story (...) The spiritual/religious issues in 'Lucky' are fascinating"	POS
United States	Joe Leydon Variety	"An unassumingly wonderful little film about nothing in particular and everything that’s important."	POS
United States	David Ehrlich IndieWire	"Harry Dean Stanton gives a performance for the ages (...) It’s a wonderful performance, artfully rearranged from the remnants of a lifetime of wonderful performances."	POS
United States	David Fear Rolling Stone	"Harry Dean Stanton is a living legend – and as this character study proves, the man still has a few great performances left in him."	POS
United States	Jeannette Catsoulis The New York Times	"The film subtly shifts from a quietly comical character study to a delicate reflection on loneliness and mortality."	POS
United Kingdom	Tim Grierson Screendaily	"'Lucky' has a pleasingly laidback atmosphere and some sublime individual moments, but on the whole this quirky, craggy character study frustrates as much as it illuminates"	NEU
