It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

This movie was the tale of such a heart touching story between two very in love people. The way they interacted gave me all the feels - from being turned on to desperately seeking my Kleenex. I can not believe i hadn't heard of it before coming across it in my public library. I think it beats the notebook and the titanic if not at least being in the same realm. Seriously, Kleenex. If you've ever felt like you needed a patriarchal point of view on family, then you wont be disappointed in the main characters portrayal of a husband and a father. You'll love his point of view on life and how to live it and you'll want to either be him or have him! Five star performance!!!

It's a wonderful heart warming story that puts on display some of the more troubling dynamics in our society. Everyone should see this movie! This movie could have been written about me. I've lived every aspect of this movie including the attitudes of an entitled younger generation incapable of doing anything without a certification, degree, governmental rubber stamp or some other external approval or authorization. America is giving up it's soul and drowning in the schemes of politicians and over leveraged business cronies and it's all on display here. I've actually had some of the same arguments with the same officials nearly verbatim.

You must have seeing plenty of romantic movies about reckless love involving the blooming young and the middle aged love with an understanding of a level higher. But you have not seeing love if you have not seeing Still Mine. This movie is a wonder of romantic genre thought it speaks of a tale of romance that is 61 years old yet getting strong day by day. After being married for so long and seven children of their own and grand kids the Morrison's keeps the flames burning strong. Craig Morrison (James Cromwell) and Irene Morrison (Geneviève Bujold) are an old couple living in their farm residing in the bliss of old age. Craig though is in his 80s still strong and healthy devotes his time to take care of his wife Irene and her needs when she starts to show signs of declining memory. And he decides to build another more manageable home for them knowing the challenges he will have to endeavor in future. But challenged by the local authorities about the standards of the construction the Morrison's affection grows stronger and their will power is tested. The true beauty of Still Mine is in the sheer sweetness of the old couple. Even how aged and wrinkled they are the romance between them and their true understanding is simply overwhelming. James and Geneviève beautifully portray the characters in a way that the viewers would shed a tear seeing them in love. Each scene they are together is so wonderful that even their eyes speak. Still Mine delivers powerful emotions throughout and anyone would want such fairy tale old age I'm sure. Still Mine is a Canadian production directed by Michael McGowan. And it is based on true events.

"We're still here, we have each other and isn't everything else a bonus?" Craig (Cromwell) and his wife Irene (Bujold) are in their 80's and beginning to feel it. Craig is being hit with new regulations on his farm and is unable to adapt as fast as he needs and Irene is beginning to show signs of dementia. Rather then admit they need to enter a home Craig decides to build a new home on their land that is smaller and easier for them to manage. Once again Craig is hit with new regulations that hinder his process but some things are harder to break then laws. Going in my first thought was...an old guy building a house, sounds exciting. It didn't take long at all for me to realize how wrong I was. The movie is filled with heart and the roadblocks Craig has to go through make you want to throw something at the screen. The fact that this is a true story makes it that much more touching. Overall, much much better then I expected, if you liked Amour you will like this as well. I really enjoyed this much more then expected. I give this a B+.
