Review of Away from Her (2007) by Joey S — 12 Feb 2013
An honest and compassionate look at the effects of dementia on an older couple's relationship, Away from Her is very powerful and affecting, and Julie Christie gives an astoundingly nuanced and sensitive performance as Fiona, the Alzheimer-afflicted wife.
A very good drama, and an especially impressive one given that it was directed by actress and first-time director Sarah Polley, who was only 27 years old when the film was made.
