Netflix’s ‘The Old Guard’ is an Entertaining Flick
"The Old Guard" doesn't break ground, but it sure does bust boredom and fictional heads as an entertaining action romp on Netflix.
Lasting Winter
February 2004. Guy Caron and his wife Jeanne-d’Arc lived in the same house for more than 50 years. A sailor who sailed every ocean, Guy was away for eight months a year, for all his career. A housekeeper, Jeanne-d’Arc raised their nine children. Their old days bring them together; but something fundamental seems to have slipped away from them forever. The director looks at this couple from a voluntary distance, leaving ample room for his quest for meaning.
