I am floored. Got on a flight from SFO to Munich and settled in to watch the only academy award nominated film I had not seen last year. Kicking myself for waiting. This film grabbed me by the throat, lifted me up and slapped me back and forth at least 6 times! Bill Nighy was robbed at the Oscars. What a performance. And what an amazing and special film loaded with in-depths explorations of questions each of has or will confront ourselves with before we each reach the end of our own stories. Bravo to the screen writers and the art direction and glorious music. I was moved to tears at least 3 times and just as many other moments of happiness, triumph and satisfaction. What a special film. It is now my favorite film and I can't wait to re-watch it and direct every scene and every hidden message. Bravo!
