Full Plot Details

Carter Page III (Woody Harrelson) holds a special place in Washington, D.C. society: the gay son and grandson of powerful men, he has connections, manners, and he's no threat, so he's an available escort when a woman's husband would rather not accompany her to a public event. When the secret lover of one of his women friends is murdered, she asks Carter to cover for her, and his acquiescence gets him into immediate trouble with the Police and an ambitious prosecutor. Carter, with the help of his lover Emek Yoglu (Moritz Bleibtreu), starts his own investigation. They're warned off by someone's hired muscle. Can Carter figure out what happened or will he lose more than he realizes he has? Human behavior is a mystery.

Movie Reviews

Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Lisa SchwarzbaumThe brittle, very ''written'' catty quips meant to characterize Washington hypocrisy sound perfunctory; the story of an aging, self-hating homosexual who goes home alone to his lacquered town house feels ancient as well as uncomfortable for the writer-director. (Harrelson seems both game and ill at ease.)
New York Observer - 9/10 by Rex ReedThe Walker is not a polished or coherent film. It's more like a work in progress. Casting Woody Harrelson was a tactical error from which the overall concept never recovers.
Detroit Free Press - 8/10 by John MonaghanThis is no masterpiece, but a fine-tuned little thriller packed with meticulously chosen details of character and place.
Times (UK) - 8/10 by James ChristopherA subtle satire about Washington hypocrisy and manners.
Observer (UK) - 8/10 by Philip FrenchThe Walker sees [Schrader] back in confidently good form and it follows a pattern recognisable in the best of his pictures.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzAll the emotional fuss dissipates in a small payoff when a big one was promised.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by G. Allen JohnsonThere is good writing here, and Thomas is very good as always, but the movie works because of Harrelson's performance.
ReelViews - 8/10 by James BerardinelliThis is not Schrader's finest work. The script is not tight, the ending disappoints, and there's a little too much drawn from American Gigolo. But there are some great one-liners, compelling actors, and well-developed characters.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 8/10 by Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)Wittily entertaining stuff, with the cast clearly relishing their snarky dialogue. Plus, the backdrop of political double dealing, with references to Whitewater and other D.C. shenanigans, adds an extra element of interest.
Laramie Movie Scope - 8/10 by Robert RotenA social dandy finds out he has an unexpected inner strength.
