Away From Her / Canada / 2007

If you’re looking for a tragic story about an elderly couple coping with Alzheimer’s, you can’t go far wrong with Sarah Polley’s directorial debut. It’s beautifully photographed and lovingly detailed, and the performances are, as expected, mesmerizing, particularly Julie Christie as the afflicted wife. But the fact remains that this is a cold, unremitting film, easy to admire but extremely tough to enjoy.
