This isn't the story of an old man's death, but rather his decision to live.
Condemned to spend his "Golden Years" cooped up in Sunset Nursing Home, 84-year-old Charlie Lambert simply refuses this ending for himself. With the help of an old buddy in Maine, Charlie plans to go AWOL—permanently. He'll buy a boat and hit the high seas, where he will happily live out the remainder of his life on his own terms.
Nothing ever goes quite as planned, though, as Charlie heads towards out on his 46-foot sailboat. He strikes up an unexpected romance with Abigail, a woman decades his junior, and still, things take a darker turn when he discovers a former FBI agent-turned-insurance-investigator hot on his trail. Agent Roberts has been hired to find out what happened to Charlie: bring him back if he's alive, or determine he's dead and collect his life insurance policy. Roberts doesn't expect a fight from the old man, but that's just what he gets, because Charlie has no intention of ever returning to Sunset, whether in handcuffs or a pine box.
Funny, profound, and heartbreaking, That Good Night tells the story of a man who won't "go gently" into the night, who is determined to sail into the sunset of his own choosing.
