Two generations of a damaged family are brought together in this emotional
drama.
Einar Gilkyson (
Robert Redford) was a once successful rancher whose spread went to seed after he developed a serious drinking problem. Now on the wagon,
Einar looks after what's left of his spread with his friend
Mitch (
Morgan Freeman), a one-time cowhand who never fully recovered after being mauled by a bear.
Einar once had a son named
Griffin, but he died in a car wreck while
Griffin's wife,
Jean (
Jennifer Lopez), was driving;
Einar never forgave her for the death, and he had never met the granddaughter she was carrying until she arrived at his doorstep 11 years later.
Jean has become involved with a violent man named
Gary (
Damian Lewis), and seeks refuge on
Einar's ranch for the safety of her daughter,
Griff (
Becca Gardner).
Einar reluctantly takes in
Jean and
Griff, giving them a place to stay as
Jean looks for work and tries to put her life back together. But old trouble makes its way back to town in two ways --
Gary tracks down
Jean and wants to make her pay for leaving him, while the bear who attacked
Mitch comes down from the mountains looking for new prey.
An Unfinished Life was adapted from the novel of the same name by
Mark Spragg.
