Danny Collins

Al Pacino plays an aging 1970s rock star who is still packing arenas and living a decadent life with a girlfriend way too young for him. On his 64th birthday, he discovers an undelivered letter written to his 19-year-old self from his hero John Lennon. He decides to straighten out, stop making a living off playing old anthems and rediscover the music he originally set out to make. He also tries to reconnect with the 40-year-old son he’s never known by moving into a small New Jersey hotel where he befriends the hotel’s manager. The rocker’s hope: that despite the rough journey, Lennon’s message that love is all that matters will ring true at the end. (Roadshow Entertainment)
