Slowly moving
After Sandra Nettelbecks movie Mostly Martha I had high hopes for this one and was not disappointed. In contrast to Mostly Martha, the film is more Drama than Comedy. This movie is about a dysfunctional family with a father/grandfather being estranged from his children. This is something almost every family can relate to. The movie develops slowly, revealing the family secrets one by one. At the end we will feel sympathy with every member of the family because we understand their positions but we are far from knowing how to solve their problems. The solution or kind of a solution that will leave most of us happy is also revealed slowly. This is a slow movie with very good acting. Michael Caine is excellent. The only thing that bothered me a little was the music.
Too depressing
It’s tough to decide whether or not to recommend watching Last Love. If you’re a Michael Caine fan, you’ll probably want to watch him do some incredible acting, but you won’t want to watch him in such a sad story. If you happen to like sad movies, you might want to give it a try. But, as much as I love Michael Caine, I could have skipped watching this movie. It was just too depressing.The beginning of the film falls under the “what does it take” category of the Academy Awards. Michael Caine is sitting at his wife’s deathbed, and after she’s passed away, outsiders come in to try and remove him from the room. He fights them, wanting to stay with his companion as long as possible. I don’t think it’s possible to watch this scene without bursting into tears, and I’m sure Michael was just as baffled as I was that he wasn’t nominated for an Oscar that year. Believe it or not, the rest of the film isn’t really any more uplifting.
Jane Alexander plays Michael’s late wife, and she visits him several times throughout the film, talking to him and giving him advice on his attempt to start a new chapter. He meets a French dance teacher, Clemence Poesy, and strikes up a friendship. The audience is supposed to realize that his unrequited crush is doomed to remain unrequited, because unless Michelle has grandfather-issues, she won’t look at him as a romantic prospect. I still think of Michael Caine as how he looked decades ago, so I didn’t understand why it was an unrequited crush in the first place.
In any case, this is an incredibly depressing film about how a man tries to continue living even though he’s lost his life companion. Use your own judgement to see if you’re able to sit through it.
Kiddy Warning: Obviously, you have control over your own children. However, due to depressing and adult content, I wouldn’t let my kids watch it.
