An Unfinished Life

A widow ( Jennifer Lopez) and her daughter (Becca Gardner) are forced to take refuge at the Wyoming homestead of her estranged father-in-law (Robert Redford).  His life has become one of bitterness since the death of his son and the only time he shows any tenderness is when he is caring for his former ranch hand (Morgan Freeman), who has been mauled by a grizzly bear.

This is not a fast paced, over-the-top action thriller.  It is a film with beautiful scenery, great understated acting and a message of redemption and forgiveness.
