It was a tough call - was seriously tempted to make this marvelous film the closing feature of the o2e May Film Fest. It's that good.
Would love to screen this movie for every adult in the good ol' USA. It's all about bustin' out of boundaries - ones we put on ourselves as we age upward, ones society places on its "golden oldies."
The Young at Heart Chorus, centered in Western Massachusetts, takes 20+ singers, ranging in age from 70s to 90s, and forges them into a remarkable ensemble that's performed around the world.
Their music mixes the serious with the seriously funny, great selections mixed with a lot of heart & humor. The music I expected wasn't what they delivered - did NOT see R&B, rock & even punk coming. But what the film really delivers is an unforgettable tribute to friendship, creativity, inspiration & blowing up expectations.
Young@Heart: Watch it ~ remember it ~ LIVE it!
