Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - How to Survive with Dignity
Altzheimers...whew, this is an accurate depiction of succumbing to its debilitating grip over mental and physical processes. In fact, I suspect that this film will become the definitive take on the subject, short of actual documentation; the acting from the leads is utterly compelling, achingly accurate(from my experiences of those afflicted with the disease). Its a downhill roll with little or no reprieve, though through the eyes of a supremely loving spouse, we feel that the diseases lessons are ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A love story.
This is one my favorite movies. It tells the story of love. This love is found later in life. It is honest and sincere. What I like about this movie is that unlike most movies that focus on new love with the young and their troubles, this portrays seasoned adults in love and their troubles. This movie shows that you can find true love at any age.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - a phenomenal film, full of love and grace
this is, quite simply, one of the best movies i have ever seen in my life. whether you have had a loved one affected by the devastation of dementia or not, you cannot help but be moved by this tragic yet ultimately uplifting and life-affirming tale. i agree with other posters, never has a struggle with caretaking for a beloved mate or relative been so tenderly or realistically explored. neither martin's wife, nor martin, are depicted as noble saints, just ordinary people who discovered a passionate ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A song for Martin
A most sensative and compelling account of life and alzeimers. A must for people to understand the difficulties associated with this incideous disease. The movie whilst moving quickly through the various stages of dementia has given a real depth to the subject. A brilliant performance by both leading actors. The subtitles were in no way a distraction from the movie.First saw the movie on television and believe it should be shown in prime time TV.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A high recommendation.
I have two parents with Alzheimer's Disease and was their primary caregiver for a substantial period of time. I read many things about this tragic disease, but learned more from this movie about where this disease will take you than from any other source. This movie is real, yet not difficult to watch. I appreciate that this film was made. Seeing the help I received from this film, I am inspired to tell my own parent's story. I recommend "A Song for Martin" to adults who want to know about this dread ... Read More
