A poignant look at death and friendship
|
| This movie is incredibly touching. There are really two stories here. The first is a portrayal of a woman facing imminent death with dignity and grace, and who continues to live life as fully as possible. The second story is one of friendship. Martha, the elderly woman, makes her home available to her visiting nurse so that the younger woman can carry on an affair with a married man. Martha laments that her son "married the wrong woman...most of them do" and this leads her to sympathize with the young lovers. In return, the nurse is the only one who understands and defends Martha's need for independence and control over her declining health. The story of the friendship between the two women, who have come to deeply love each other, is beautiful to watch. |
