Such a tremendous movie
I rarely take my time to write reviews on IMDb and this is a clear exception. One of my biggest fears is slowly losing my memory and not being able to recognize the people I love wholeheartedly, and this movie made sure I cried a river of tears throughout the beautiful journey of watching it. Anthony Hopkins is, without a doubt in my mind, a fantastic actor who helps this movie shine. The story is phenomenal and, at one point, I legitimately thought I was watching someone suffering from Alzheimer's.
If the movie didn't throw the word "Anthony" at me every now and then, I can be certain that I wouldn't even remind myself that that man is Anthony Hopkins.
I always see actors and actresses but I also allow myself to establish an emotional connection with their characters.
There are very few movies that I have watched where I completely forgot I was watching a movie, and this is one of those movies. I got lost in the movie as Anthony got lost in his mind. In the very end, I didn't see Anthony Hopkins, I saw an old man suffering from a horrible disease. I sincerely hope Hopkins gets an Oscar for the genuine tears he spawned on my eyes.
It's a beautiful film and you won't regret watching it!
