The Walker
Paul Schrader’s tale about a Washington socialite is the fourth and final part in a series of films chronicling the life of the outsider. Woody Harrelson plays a ‘walker’ - a gent who takes the wives of the rich and powerful political elite to social occasions when their husbands are either too busy or disinterested. In an attempt to protect one of his friends, played by Kristin Scott Thomas, he unwittingly becomes involved in a murder and his cosy life of gossip and canasta is disrupted.
