HBO’s ‘The Sunset Limited’ janda Thursday, January 27, 2011 5-4-3-2-1, The Script Check out the trailer for HBO’s upcoming film, ‘The Sunset Limited’ starring Samuel L. Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones. Here’s a brief synopsis… This searing two-character drama mixes humor and pathos while examining the relationship between strangers who are brought together by desperate circumstances. Set in a New York tenement apartment, the story focuses on two very different men – a deeply religious black ex-con (Samuel L. Jackson) who thwarts the suicide attempt of an asocial white college professor (Tommy Lee Jones) who tried to throw himself in front of an oncoming subway train, The Sunset Limited. As the one attempts to connect on a rational, spiritual and emotional level, the other remains steadfast in his hard-earned despair. Locked in a philosophical debate, both passionately defend their personal credos and try to convert the other. Check out the trailer! ‘The Sunset Limited’ will debut on Saturday, February 12 @ 9 pm on HBO.
