I take care of my 88-year-old mother full time, so I'm already spending most of my life with her. This film reaffirmed in my mind that I'm doing the right thing. My father died in 1994, and I wish I had spent more time with him while he was alive. I feel like sending copies of this film to my sisters, who don't help me take care of our mother. Did this film change your attitude or view of your parents?
shareYour post is nearly 9 years old but as you still post on IMDb it's worth a reply. I watched the film having lost both parents; my mother more recently. The film made me cry, especially the scenes with the mother dying and the aftermath. I sensed early on that the mother would die. I found the way her fatal malady was portrayed very true and effective. I'm not sure that this film would change one's attitude to parents enjoying rude health. By the time a parent is unwell, as happened with mine, yes this film c/would have an impact.
My parents' deaths has changed my attitude to elderly people and I felt this change in me as I watched the film.
