Death doesn't so much concern the dying, but rather those left behind. And this movie embodies that with a terrific cast and perfect casting. Nathan Watt stole the show and I am rather disappointed he hasn't done much else since 1996. His honest, at times uncertain portrayal of a child coming to terms with his mother's imminent death and preserving her memories was heart-wrenching. Topped that off with the callous but level-headed father Torturro brings, blended with dashes of the crazy uncles played by Richards and Davis -- this movie grabs you expectedly in an unexpected way.
I only saw the last twenty minutes of it and now I am going to make sure I enjoy the whole thing! I'm sure it will be good all the way. I think any movie that makes us appreciate being alive and having the ones we care about around should be applauded and this is definitely one of them.
