Young@Heart

Young @ Heart
DVD

This documentary follows the musical group Young@Heart as they rehearse for a big show in their hometown. The average age of the group members is over 70, and they sing rock songs. Their musical selections include songs by Coldplay, James Brown, and The Clash. The BeeGee's Staying Alive takes on a whole new meaning when sung by a man carrying a container of oxygen. I cried when they sang Forever Young.

This movie shows how fun life can be if we stay open to new ideas, and keep active. The attitude, passion, and talent of this group of seniors is inspiring. Fantastic!
