The Way (2010)

☻ ☻ ☻  The Way (2010). A widower travels to France to collect the remains of his son and decides to take a holiday.


Killed on his first day in a storm in the Pyrenees, Daniel (Emilio Estevez) will never complete the Camindo de Santiago, the Way of St James. Intrigued the cast of characters lining up to begin the pilgrimage Santiago de Compostela, his father Tom (Martin Sheen) puts his medical practice on hold and sets out to finish the journey his estranged son had barely begun.


Tom (Martin Sheen) goes for a little walk.


Like Chaucer's group before him, Tom hooks up with a bunch of pilgrims and comes away with more than he bargained for. You will too.

With James Nesbitt (TV's Monroe) as Jack, the guy with the writer's block and Yorick van Wageningen an Amsterdamer with a drug habit masquerading as a weight problem.
