Robot and Frank
Director Jake Schreier and writer Christopher D. Ford made their feature debut with this charming film that blends sci-fi and drama. An elderly jewel thief receives a robot caretaker which enables him getting back into business. Schreier and Ford managed to keep their ambition in control which could have easily derailed their efforts. Frank Langella stars with another terrific performance which is the heart and soul of the film and elevates it beyond its minor flaws. The solid supporting cast includes Susan Sarandon, Peter Sarsgaard, James Marsden and Liv Tyler. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
