 Rating:  - Not for the faint of heartRead some of the other reviews and you'll know the basis of the story. But this kind of film is not for everyone. The story line is difficult to say the least.

When we studied barriers to learning, targeting grief and depression, we watched this video. 'Night, Mother captures the factual stages and characteristics very well. Afterwards my students (16-18 year olds) said they enjoyed it even though "it was sad." Suicide is sad, but in a society that believes in canned self-improvements is a credit card purchase away, `Night, Mother shows that the ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
