I have seen several movies dealing with Alzheimer disease and it is easily the best one. The directing is very well done, the acting by both leads is just amazing and the story is really heartbreaking. Not a cheerfull pic but definitely worth a look.

"A film about Alzheimer's Disease, morbid. I really liked it, even though it's tragic, it's beautiful. And Julie Christie is amazing. There was this one quote at the beginning that went like: (She's looking at flowers) "When I look away, I forget what yellow means. But I can look again. There's something delicious in oblivion." I loved that. Also, an elderly lady said "clusterfuck" which is always good! "
