Get Low (2009)
I took my father to see this one, which was his first movie in the past couple of years, I thought it would suit him. In the 1930s a reclusive hermit comes to town and decides that he would like to throw a funeral party before he dies. He wants everyone to come who has a story to tell about him, and also raffles off his property. A friendship forms with the gents who run the funeral home as they help him prepare, and his darkest secret become known.
3/5 - a gentle drama, beautiful in its simplicity, that is suited to a wintry nights television movie. (Instead we are subjected to lots of recent rubbish instead on real drama - yes NZ TV sucks)
