The actor [Kevin Kline] captures this man's vulnerabilities and struggles in a hugely sympathetic way. Full Review

A quiet, thoughtful and ultimately satisfying film, "My Old Lady" is a truly well-executed story told by some of the finest actors you can possibly watch in a film. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- As we learn more about the tormented family backgrounds, broken love affairs and suicide attempts of the protagonists, the film begins to sag under the weight of its characters' mounting self-pity. Full Review

I'd praise Horovitz for going the darker route if My Old Lady wasn't so wrenchingly obvious and Kevin Kline's character wasn't so venal and cruel. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- [Fits] into the unflatteringly dubbed "grey-pound" category, a genre that seeks to tell stories of later life in the most disappointing and unimaginative ways. Full Review

Product Description:

Despondent New Yorker Mathias Gold (Kevin Kline) ventures to Paris with plans of liquidating the apartment inherited from his late father, but runs into an unexpected roadblock when he discovers that the flat is currently inhabited by his father's former lover, an elderly Englishwoman named Mathilde Girard (Maggie Smith), and her adult daughter Chloé (Kristin Scott Thomas). Realizing he's reached an impasse after learning that Mathilde can legally collect regular payments from him until her death, Mathias convinces her to enter into a tentative lodging agreement that's complicated by Chloé's suspicion over his meetings with a predatory property developer with an eye on the apartment. Later, tensions begin to subside as Mathias and Chloé find a common ground in sharing stories about their troubled childhoods, and Mathilde reveals a secret that connects the trio in ways that once seemed impossible.
