An elderly woman forced into a care home has to revisit her dark past to get revenge on those who wronged her in The G. Ann Hunter (Dale Dickey) is a woman in her 70s living alone with her ailing husband Chip (Greg Ellwand). While estranged from Chip's son, Ann has a close relationship with her granddaughter Emma (Romane Denis), who nicknames Ann "The G." One day Ann and Chip are taken by Rivera (Bruce Ramsay), calling himself their new guardian, who uses a court order to force them into an eldercare facility. Chip soon passes away from the abusive treatment inside the facility and with the help of old contacts and her kind neighbour Joseph (Roc Lafortune), The G plans to get revenge on Rivera and ensure the safety of Emma and her family. The G Synopsis The G is a revenge thriller written and directed by Karl R. Hearne and starring highly prolific character actor Dale Dickey (My Name is Earl, Fallout, Iron Man 3, Blood Father) as the titular Ann "The G" Hunter. The plot thematically deals with the, completely legal, business of guardians forcibly admitting the elderly into care homes and stealing all their assets. While The G's granddaughter Emma tries to find a legal solution to getting her out, with the help of landscaper Matt (Joey Scarpellino), The G calls her old criminal connections in Texas for a more forceful solution. My Thoughts on The G The G uses a revenge-thriller narrative to tackle the issue of elder abuse. At the centre of the film is 62-year-old Dale Dickie, whose auburn hair and very distinctive facial features are a familiar sight in a multitude of film and television products, ranging from Breaking Bad to White Bird in a Blizzard. The G features Dickie in the lead role as the foul-mouthed Ann Hunter, seeking revenge against this exploitative eldercare facility. While The G has a few too many subplots, including ambiguous fates for some of the supporting characters, the film is still a solid starring vehicle for Dale Dickie.
