A touching, clever look at an adult granddaughter's poignant relationship with her ailing grandmother., 29 March 2002

What does a dedicated granddaughter do when she's not ready to say goodbye
to her dying grandmother? Make a poignant, heartfelt, cinematic homage to
the woman who meant so much to her for so long.
Although made on a small budget, this film's occasional kitschy special
effects add a layer of warmth in a family documentary that unabashedly
looks
at what it was like to grow up Jewish in New York, with a grandma who was
your idol.
Family dysfunction is not overlooked in this true portrayal of one
relative's slow deterioration, rewinding and fast-forwarding to all
aspects
of aging.
Honesty is foremost in this often humorous look at one family's foibles,
without engaging in maudlin manipulation.
And one thing is most certain: This is a movie you won't
forget.
Mazel tov, Jan Oxenberg!
