M. Night Shyamalan has taken audiences on a mysterious journey for most of his career. His latest film, Old, is another head scratcher but one that have you thinking until the last scene.
Heading out to a gorgeous resort sounds pretty perfect right now. For Guy and Prisca Capa, played by Gael García Bernal and Vicky Krieps, it’s the last time their whole family will be together before they divorce. They’ve been keeping this a secret from their two kids. The resort seems to have everything, wellness activities, hand delivered cocktails, and a beverage bar for the kids. The hotel manager takes the Capa family along with a few other guests to a remote, secluded part of the beach for a day of fun in the sun. Their day of fun comes to a halt when the body of a dead woman washes ashore, and they all start to age at a rapid pace right before their very eyes.
