David Lowery writes and directs this indie drama about an on-the-run convict's attempts to reach the child he has never seen. After a series of crimes leads them to take to the Texas hills, lovers Ruth Guthrie and Bob Muldoon (Rooney Mara and Casey Affleck) are finally cornered in a shack and involved in a fierce shootout with the police. In the ensuing battle Ruth critically injures a police officer, and Bob, unwilling to see his love sent to jail, admits to firing the shot, resulting in a sizable prison sentence. Years later, as he slowly acclimatises to life behind bars, the unexpected news that Ruth has borne him a daughter turns Bob's world upside down, resulting in him staging an audacious escape from prison and setting out across country to track down his family.

Please note this is a region 2 DVD and will require a region 2 (Europe) or region Free DVD Player in order to play.   Beautifully shot, critically-acclaimed and led by captivating performances from Casey Affleck (The Killer Inside Me) and Rooney Mara (The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo), Ain't Them Bodies Saints is an unforgettable and powerful love story set amidst the beautiful backdrop of 1970s Texas Hill County. Bob Muldoon (Affleck) and Ruth Guthrie (Mara), an impassioned young outlaw couple, are finally apprehended after a shootout in the Texas hills. Although Ruth wounds local officer Sheriff Wheeler (Ben Foster), Bob takes the blame and is sent to jail. Four years later, Bob escapes from prison and sets out to reunite with his beloved wife and the daughter he has never met, with dramatic and heart-breaking consequences.   Actors Casey Affleck, Rooney Mara & Ben Foster Director David Lowery Certificate 15 years and over Year 2013 Languages English Subtitles English for the hearing impaired Duration 1 hour and 33 minutes (approx)
