Comments: This is a long film. It describes the life of a man who is born old and dies young. The trouble is that he only proceeds from physically old to physically young: mentally he grows up just as bewildered as the rest of us, and dies just as confused.
I really enjoyed this film! It took me a bit to get involved. But once the story got going, I was engrossed. I didn't realize how long this film is until I was watching the closing credits.
I watch many movies. I see good and bad. This film really affected me. I went into it expecting nothing and was blown away. I found myself crying at the end, and despite the happy ending-credits music. This is the sign of a very good film.
