"Before I Forget"
« on: July 18, 2008, 02:35:00 pm »
"Before I Forget" is so unflinching in the way it deals with the aging body -- and the way the mind refuses to age along with it -- that it's sometimes painful to watch. But the things that make it painful are also what make it so bracingly beautiful. The upside of having a daily routine is that ritual brings us comfort. The downside is that each day of that routine brings us closer to the inevitable end -- and yet, it's the getting there that's the stuff of life.

I always thought a movie on aging gay and HIV would be a compelling story. The French film "Before I Forget' will be released Friday, I hope it makes it to America. Here's the review.

Yeah, it looks really good.  Maybe it will come to Philadelphia, but I don't see it listed for the Ritz Theaters as upcoming and that's the only place I can imagining it showing.

If it's still playing next time I go to NYC I will try to go.
