Each year on September 21st,it is the world Alzheimer's and Demential Day and This date organizations around the world make a huge effort to raise awareness and challenge the stigma around this disease.There is not doubt that this illness is likely one the worst.Not until each family knows its consequences do they realize what it really means.From my blog,I want to have my humble tribute to these families which suffer and also the Alzeimer associations.
Nebraska is an American comedy-drama film.It was directed by Alexander Payne in 2013.This brilliant movie was nominated for numerous awards such as Cannes film Festival,Palmer d’Or and especially it was nominated by six Academy Oscar award.Furthermore,not only becomes this film a complete success ,but also it was highly considered by criticism.Needless to say that the most relevant point was the film’s lighting which was designed black and white screening.It was converted from color to black and white in post-production because Payne said he wanted to produce an ‘iconic and archetypal look atmosphere’
In Billings,Montana,Woody Grant is a an elderly person who suffers dementia.One day,he is walking alone on the motorway.Suddenly,a policeman asks him about his destination.Woody says that he wants to go to Nebraska to collect a million dollar prize that he believes the has won.After that,Woody is picked up by his son (David) to the local police station.When they arrive at home,Kate,Woddy’s wife is angry with his insistence about collecting this money.Yet,his son gets obligated to achieve his father’s goal.So,David and Woody start this adventure to collect this uncertain award.During this travel,while Woody memories are dissapearing due to his illness,David knows everything over his father’s past.
An masterpiece in this genre,It’s hard to even describe what sensitive and thought provoking this movie.There is not doubt that It should be in ‘must see’ of everyone.The choice to film in black and which is brillant.
…Does he have Alzheimer’s? No,he just believes what people tell him.
