People talk or laugh about aging, its irritations and relentless progression, but rarely confront the reality of dying or being left alone. Nor do they consider the lightness and calmness that can come when the race seems not so crucial. I LIKE IT HERE is about all those things and, finally, about the pleasures of being alive. A figurehead of American independent documentary film, Ralph Arlyck conveys how it feels to look back on your own life, to contemplate your place in an ever-changing world, and what to make of the time that remains.

“I Like It Here” is part memoir, part personal essay on aging and mortality... There’s no plot, per se. But I’ve seen the movie twice, and both times I found myself moved near tears. Go to Full Review Jason Delgado Film Threat 09/09/2024
