Julie Christie, Olympia Dukakis and Michael Murphy have joined the cast of Canadian actress Sarah Polley's feature-film directorial debut
Away From Her, says the Hollywood Reporter.
The feature will follow Christie as the forgetful, elderly wife of a philanderer in a nursing home who turns her affections to another resident, played by Murphy.
They will join a cast that includes Gordon Pinsent, Wendy Crewson, Kristen Thomson and Alberta Watson. The story has been adapted by Polley from an Alice Munro short story, 'Away'.
