Elaine Madsen and her
daughter Virginia work together on this film about women in their older
years. Elaine asks 16 women between the ages of 64-94
different questions about their lives now and what they think of aging. Many of the women talk about how they
don’t think about the number for their age and they focus on how they feel
their lives are better now.
I thought this was
good and interesting. Each person
has a different perspective but all the remarks are positive. It’s not about not having wrinkles, not
being thin enough or popular enough.
It’s about having experiences and gaining knowledge though living. Society puts a lot of pressure on women and aging!! 3 ½* (I liked this movie)
