Harry Dean Stanton: Partly Fiction - his autobiographical documentary struck me deeply. Albeit entirely fictional, Lucky seems like another biography of Harry Dean Stanton. It's like a premeditated send off. It's his final role and he didn't even live long enough to see the official release. The film also reunites him with Tom Skerritt (after 38 years since they appeared in Alien) and David Lynch (who directed Harry Dean Stanton on numerous occasions). Lucky is a beautiful film of exploration of death and celebration of life. Goodbye Harry.
