An Unfinished Life (2005)
Set against the rugged ranchlands of Wyoming, AN UNFINISHED LIFE is the story of a modern-day Western family, as stoic as they are divided, learning the true meaning of forgiveness. Robert Redford stars as Einar Gilkyson, a tough-skinned, retired rancher who long ago turned his back on memories. Still in shock from his only son's death a decade ago, Einar has let his ranch fall into ruin along with his marriage. Now, Einar spends his days caring only for his hired hand, and last trusted friend, Mitch, who was gravely injured in an encounter with a grizzly bear. Einar intends to live out his days in this heartbroken solitude . . . until the very person he blames for his son's accident comes to town: his daughter-in-law Jean. (read more)

Favorite Movie Quotes from : An Unfinished Life
Jean Gilkyson: They're good enchiladas... served by good people. I'm a good person. I'm also one who's taken more than her fair share of sh*t from men. I couldn't take a pinch of crap from two little cheesedicks like you.
This film was a good solid film. It has plenty of...

Extremely predictable story filled with good to great performances.
Einar (Robert Redford), a crusty old rancher, does what he can to hold onto his Wyoming ranch. It's been a struggle for years; his son was killed in a car crash, his wife left him, and his longtime friend and helper, Mitch (Morgan Freeman) was recently...

Some have described this as basically a remake of Heidi. Robert Redford has given up on life and spends his time taking care of his ranch hand, played by Morgan Freeman, who was attacked by a grizzly. That right there is enough for me to spend two hours watching a film. Redford and freeman have not disappointed me in the...

One of the most underlooked movies of the year. It was a truly genuine movie with great poignancy and terrific morals. Veterans Robert Redford and Morgan Freeman are always terrific and this movie is no exception for them. Oscar calibre performances from both of them. Jennifer Lopez is great as well. This is no "Gigli" for...
