This was a simple movie...very relatable. Great cast from years past. The messages and lessons learned made for a happy ending, after so much tragedy. The piano piece played by Melody was heartwarming... I love instrumentals and would love to download load it to my Playlist...why can I find it? Thanks for an enjoyable movie and seeing two of the fabulous and funny actresses in their last roles.
I think most of America, if not the world, look for great family programming L, and thia movie fit the bill.
I'm am older guy, and I had tears several times watching this. I rarely sit thru a whole movie. Usually I don't finish them, or watch them over multiple days, but like a God book you can't put down, I watched this fully without a break.
While some might say it was an obvious outcome, there were 2 main twists I did not expect.
Dealing with dementia and Alzheimers can be both scary and rewarding, and this movie shows just a small part of that experience. You'll feel very sad, and very happy.
I will be looking for more fro thsi writer and director.
When I found it was all filmed less than 10 miles from me, I was shocked I'd never heard about it. I'm so glad I just accidently happens across it. I was binge-watching Little House and looked up Karen Grassle and that's when I found this movie. 2 of the others in this movie, it was their last performance, Olympia Dukakis and Cloris Leachman.

I loved seeing Karen Grassle back on the screen. Her performance was especially strong, like the one of Louis Gosset Jr and Tatum O'Neal. Unfortunately Cloris Leachman and Olympia Dukakis didn't have many scenes, like George Chakiris. But it was nice that so many Oscar winners came together for such an important subject matter. Alzheimer's is a terrible disease and a cure must be found ASAP.

I dont watch movies often and then when i watch something it is very hard for me to sit for a long time and enjoy the time i get converted to other things but this on the other hand was very intresting and i watched the whole movie.
NOT TO FORGET is a film you will not forget, with its poignant message and unique perspective on Alzheimer's.
