June Again (2020)
Tidy Endings
Gut-wrenching. In the best of ways. As an avid movie buff, and someone who has relied on IBDM for reviews for years, I have never written a review myself. But as I sit here in tears (the best kind), having just watched June Again, I had to sit down and write a review. This movie is near perfect. The story is amazing, and will hit home with anyone who has a relative suffering from Dementia, or who's family has drifted apart, who yearns for lost love, or...who has lost themselves. This movie speaks on so many levels. The acting was stellar, down to even the minor characters. Every performance feels of truth, like you're actually watching these people and their lives. Not just acting, but living it. It's a complex story, but with a simplicity in it's delivery. It reminds you that no matter who you are, or what your lot in life, things return -- family, friendships, lost love, emotions, and....memories. I feel that this movie has a message for everyone, and will touch a part of your heart and your mind in a way that not many movies can. And, if nothing else, it will bring you to your own sense of joy. Where many movies wrap up the story leaving you feeling like the end was cheesy, forced, or just disappointing, June Again is the tidiest of endings. The perfect ending. Watch it. You'll be glad you did.
