Youth



On vacation in the Alps, two friends on the verge of turning 80 look to each other for support.  One is a retired orchestra conductor on holiday with his daughter and the other is a film director.  The conductor receives an invitation from Queen Elizabeth to perform and refuses but reconsiders.    The film director is making a movie and things don't always go as planned.  Both begin realizing that time is no longer on their side.  This film is the last of a trilogy by Paolo Sorrentino on life.  Not a film for youth but the older generation could appreciate it.  I give it a 7.  Stars Michael Caine, Rachel Weiss and Mick Boyle.
