| The Bucket List |
Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman star as two terminally ill cancer
patients who decide to break out of the hospital and live their last
days to the fullest in director Rob Reiner's seriocomic road movie.
Edward Cole (Nicholson) is a corporate billionaire who is currently
sharing a hospital room with blue-collar mechanic Carter Chambers
(Freeman). Though initially the pair seems to have nothing in common,
conversation gradually reveals that both men have a long list of goals
they wish to
accomplish before they
kick the bucket, and an unrealized desire to discover what kind of men
they really are. But one can't accomplish such lofty objectives from the
confines of a hospital bed, so now, in order to live their lives to the
absolute fullest, Edward and Carter will have to make a break for it.
With a checklist that includes playing the poker tables in Monte Carlo,
consuming copious amounts of caviar, racing the fastest machines on four
wheels, and much more, these two terminally ill men will do their best
to fit a lifetime of experience into their last remaining days while
forging an unlikely, but truly remarkable, friendship. ~ Jason Buchanan,
