Synopsis: A Late Quartet, the first fiction film from director Yaron Zilberman, follows the lives of four longtime colleagues who play in a celebrated string quartet together. As the group begin their 25th season together, the eldest member (Christopher Walken) discovers he has the beginning stage of Parkinson's disease. Because he can't perform to the best of his abilities, he would like to bow out of the quartet without disbanding it. However, a married couple within the group (Philip Seymour Hoffman and Catherine Keener) are on the brink of breaking up, and their rocky period isn't helped by the fact that the fourth member has begun an affair with their college-age daughter. A Late Quartet screened at the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival.
THELOSTCHILdd: A Late Quartet was such a good movie, the best I've seen in a realllyyyy long time.
jsigmund: And forgot Imogene Poots was in this. Was brilliant in "A Late Quartet"
WesMcClintock: I watched the movie "A Late Quartet" last night. The movie made it seem like bands were dysfunctional, how inacurate.
HoldenDCat: #ALateQuartet was undone by uneven acting & writing. Smart message, but two talented actors, C. Walken & P. Hoffman, are mostly wasted.
Rythemovieguy: Watched #ALateQuartet last night - not sure I buy PS Hoffman being a world renown violinist
