REFRESHING!


Yesterday I watched a movie about a long-married couple, with deep love and respect for each other. Refreshing!

The words to the ending song had special meaning to me (more than what the movie intended) and perfectly summarized the story.
"Get over your hill and see what you find there, And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears. And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears."
This is the true story of an 89 year old guy who attempts to build a new home for his ailing wife, only to get caught in bureaucratic red tape. And as he casually continues with the project, his wife's condition grows progressively worse. If he's going to get the house built, he'll need to do it soon. 

Summoned into court for refusing to halt construction, the defiant guy refuses to back down, even if it means going to jail before the house is finished. 

Great acting, great true story, incredible ending! 


(PG-13) (only negative was completely unnecessary language. An oh, there's footage of an 89 year-old guy's naked behind, but I thought it was funny, not obscene)
