Written by Paul Osborn
Directed by Joel Grey

This event has passed

Theater and film legend Joel Grey directs On Borrowed Time, a magical fantasy about the love between a little boy and his Gramps. When Death himself pays them a visit in the form of a man named Mr. Brink, Gramps outwits him—trapping Brink in a tree and refusing to let him down. This too-rarely-seen American masterpiece is ripe for rediscovery.
