As far as acting send-offs go, you could do much worse than David Lowery‘s "The Old Man & The Gun," (Fox Searchlight, 9/28), a slight, a tad too-gentle, ode to Robert Redford, who has stated that this would be his last acting performance before retiring into the sunset. 

The film, clocking in at just 93 minutes, is not a tough sit by any stretch of the imagination but rather a harmless excuse to pay tribute to a Hollywood legend.
