Supernova

A delightful pairing with a potentially torturous subject matter; there's just enough of the "Gravity of the situation." to make this tug at your heartstrings. The entire cast was fabulous and, I personally enjoyed the scenery and the love portrayed here. I didn't even mind the slow pace of the movie, it really was needed in this difficult arena. In the future, I hope the subject of Dementia continues to be broached on the Big screen, as those who are dealing with this could certainly use the insight.

A moving film, superbly acted in a perfectly embracing location, which opens our minds to the desperate dementia condition and the refusal of society to allow personal end of life decisions for this illness.

🏳️‍🌈 A romantic drama that follows a mature couple traveling across England in their old RV to visit friends, family and places from their past. Since one of them was diagnosed with dementia, they must make the most of their time together. It is a heartbreaking and moving movie that will tug on the heartstrings of viewers as it navigates the old couple's emotions and dynamics. Definitely a melancholic tale with profound silences that deals with complex themes such as mortality and illness, and the conflict and sadness that comes with the reality of dementia. Colin Firth and Stanley Tucci are marvelous as the leads, mostly with emotional theatrical one-shot scenes in which their talent flourishes. However, the script perhaps lacked scenes to showcase how deep their love goes, and to engage the viewer more with the relationship itself. But the performances are more than enough to carry the whole movie.

A delicate film movingly executed. Uniformly wonderful performances and breathtaking scenery add to the understated power of a middle-aged couple facing illness and loss.

Typically resonates over its thematic poignance upwards a suggestibly eye-opening emotional level regarding acceptance countering the denial whilst reminding the truer essence during the memorably fading struggles, done in a delicate embrace by the brilliantly paired performative chemistry. (B+)

This is nothing short of a beautiful film in every way, the worst thing about it for me was it actually ends and I was left wanting more . Superb acting matched only by the breathtaking backdrop of The Lake District. Tender cruel and gentle but sad humour . Cannot recommend it highly enough

Stunning performances from both Colin Firth and Stanley Tucci. Very real, sensitive portrayals of a traumatic journey that's faced by many and the stark choices open to families in this awful situation. Hankies at the ready though as it's a bit of a tear jerker.

This is a gently moving film. It features stellar performances from the two main actors, Colin Firth and Stanley Tucci. The last 2 scenes are very emotional. There are some memorable quotes, such as 'being sad something is gone just means it was great while it was there.' It's a thought provoking film - it'd be hard not to feel sorry for both of the main characters. I would definitely recommend this poignant film, yes.

Excellent movie. Great original plot and extraordinary acting. Sad but comforting in many ways.

Heart-warming and emotional, this movie really strikes a chord. Good performances by Firth and Tucci.
