A very human story of a grandson who is coping with his grandmother's advancing Alzheimer's diagnosis.

This movie does a beautiful job of telling the story of Alzheimer's without resorting to clichés. It lets you experience the heartbreak of the disease from the side of the family and the victim. It also addresses many of the concerns that come with caring from those who used to care for us.

It's no surprise that the theater was filled with sounds of people crying. What was a surprise was how many times we also laughed out loud. The script didn't rely on emotional manipulation, but simply let the story unfold and the humanity of its characters shine.

The scenery of the movie was beautiful, and anyone who lives in or has visited Western PA and West Virginia will appreciate seeing the location stand out as an additional character.
