Lucky celebrates the beauty of being at the twilight of life and being able to ponder with clarity about it. Lucky is a solitary man. One day, a minor accident makes him reconsider his lonely existence. But instead of getting depressed or pity himself, Lucky looks for little emotions in the tiny details of his daily life. There is not a grand narrative here, nor an heroic character solving conflicts, this is simply the story of a man and his day to day life. There is a game of mirrors between the character of Lucky and Harry Dean Stanton´s real life. Both character and actor share biographical events, to the extent that David Lynch appears in the film as a friend of the character. It can be said that in both Lucky and the third season of Twin Peaks by Lynch, Harry Dean Stanton is playing himself. Two roles that are in turn directly connected to his first masterpiece, acting in Paris, Texas: that man who wanders in the desert, utterly alone, utterly lost. Surrounded by an extraordinary cast, characters, and story, the debut as a director of the acclaimed actor John Carroll Lynch is a love letter to life and to Harry Dean Stanton´s career. A true jewel, not to be missed!
