Today is Jimmy's last day alive. He has advancing Alzheimer's, so he's decided to die like he has lived -- with intention, humor, and zest. In his last day on Earth, he'll show an obituary writer, his death doula, his estranged brother, his caretaker, a surreal being, and the guests at his fabulous FUN-eral, that perhaps the art of living is actually the art of dying.

Moon Manor might not seem like it is for everyone, given the topic. But hopefully, it will be seen by a wide audience because the beauty of cinema is that it can show us different perspectives. Go to Full Review

A comedy-drama about a subject--euthanasia--that can weigh a sentence like a lead balloon, MOON MANOR is somehow whimsical, witty, and stirring enough to take flight. Go to Full Review
