Review of Mid-August Lunch (2008) by Ian M — 21 Aug 2010
Mid-August Lunch is about aging and a reminder that no matter how old we are, companionship, stimulating conversation and a good meal are always enjoyable. The film has both amusing and poignant moments, particularly as the elderly women begin to see their weekend in Gianni's care as an adventure and outing.
They don't seem to miss their regular life with their own sons and caretakers at all and there is a lesson there for all of us. Despite being a short film it dragged at times.
