The Sunset Limited (US - DVD R1 | BD)
We have package artwork for a Samuel L Jackson film which arrives February 7
Synopsis
Quote: From Cormac McCarthy, author of NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN and THE ROAD comes this searing two character drama about the choice people frequently make; to go on or give in to despair. Set in a New York tenement apartment, the story focuses on two very different men, a black ex-con (Samuel L. Jackson) who claims to hear the voice of Jesus, and the white professor (Academy Award® winner Tommy Lee Jones) he stopped from throwing himself in front of an oncoming train, The Sunset Limited.
What follows is a philosophical debate with incredibly high stakes – can Black convince White that life is worth living, that once he goes out that door he should not head for a return date with the Sunset Limited? Souls are bared and secrets shared, with Black’s faith increasingly challenged by White’s bleak but meticulously reasoned view of a world gone wrong. The conflict reaches a shattering conclusion that will leave you thinking well after the final frame.

Sounds like a good story, hope it does not have a stupid ending.

One of my favourites of the year so far.
All takes place in one location (based on a play). Amazing and riveting acting. It's pretty much an 80-minute scene that sucks you in and won't let go.

Agree with the praise this has received. Two dudes talking in a small apartment for an hour and a half, riveting the entire time. It was a really pleasant surprise.
What movie ISN'T Samuel L. Jackson in?
This is the first time I even heard of this film from this post, sounds very interesting with shades of American Buffalo with Dustin Hoffman and Dennis Franz. I loved The Three Burials of Melquiades De Estrada and TLJ also masterfully directed that. I will definitely check this film out as well.
