The end is near, and Ed is more than prepared. When not lecturing his son, Brian, about the obvious warning signs of the world’s looming demise, Ed keeps apprised of the evening news and imparts his wisdom on keen listeners in online chat rooms. During one of his daily visits to the local grocery store, where he steadily builds his inventory of batteries and canned tuna, Ed meets Ronnie, an endearing woman whom he is convinced is a fellow prepper. Although Ed and Ronnie both tend to keep to themselves, the pair hits it off and an affectionate romance begins. As the couple grows closer, they allow one another into their guarded lives, attempting to make room for love among their mounting collection of belongings. With impressive performances and undeniable chemistry between the film’s leads, John Lithgow and Blythe Danner, THE TOMORROW MAN illustrates a couple’s stronghold on sorrows of the past and worries of the future, which they must set aside to live for today. —A.B.
