Golden Years
Banks, Bowls and...Bingo
Directed by John Miller
A warm, gently comedic caper about an elderly couple driven to crime by circumstance, balancing humor with quiet social commentary on aging and injustice.
Fate, the pensions crisis and a steadfast refusal to accept the injustice of old age have contrived to force law abiding, retired couple, Arthur and Martha Goode into a life of crime.
