"Unlike Sarah Polley's superior kindred spirit Away from Her, Lovely, Still's portrait of late-life love is excruciatingly shallow and phony." - Nick Schager

Intimate portrait of a worn out soul given a last chance at love. Where some would question the undermining efficacy of its much too familiar plot device, I would retaliate with utmost conviction in how it helps the story move forward. Landau is very good as the disconsolate, forgetful yet caring Robert, benumb by the simplest of questions: "could we have dinner tomorrow ?" A little clumsy here and there but Flacker has given us a taste of his bound to be, given his age, interesting career.

Touching story of an older man saved from the brink of depression by a woman who lives across the street. First time feature director/writer, Nickolas Fackler, has talents that belie his age (22 when filmed) and education (high school, completely self-taught). It made me ask, how can this just be for an older audience? Ellen Burstyn's performance is especially endearing.
