Critiques (1)
A superbly filmed, masterfully written and precisely acted requiem for fading family ties in five chapters and an epilogue, in which the complex characters take a non-trivial approach to dealing with their relationships with each other and the complicated problems associated with work, illnesses, childcare and various forms of dying in all of the complexity that life brings. The sophisticatedly constructed narrative changes perspective with each chapter, expanding the content of the overall situation and additionally enriching earlier events with new details and meanings. Dying is a brilliant work about the key influences on the formation of one’s personality and various ways of processing mental anguish, as well as about empathy and mutual understanding. A lot of its scenes, including several musical numbers, are worth remembering. Bravo.
