80 FOR BRADY
Director: Kyle Marvin
Starring: Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Sally Field, Rita Moreno, Bob Balaban, Glynn Turman, Billy Porter, Sara Gilberg, Tom Brady, Harry Hamlin
Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Sally Field, and Rita Moreno are legends, icons, trailblazers of the big screen. They’ve won every award that can be handed out, and now they’re all starring together in the winning comedy 80 For Brady. The film is inspired by the true story of a group of friends all over 80 and die-hard fans of football player Tom Brady. Lily Tomlin stars as Lou, who you could say is the glue that holds this friendship together. It’s been a standing tradition for her friends Maura (Moreno), Trish (Fonda), and Betty (Field) to gather on Sunday and watch Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. They even have their superstitions like knocking over a bowl of chips and Betty standing on a ladder as the game starts. It’s Lou who suggests the four of them head to the Super Bowl to have that once in a lifetime experience. Their trip involves busting Maura out of her retirement home, a hot wings contest with Guy Fieri and sneaking into the big game thanks to Billy Porter’s character. In theaters
