Wife and I were given passes to an advance screening for the upcoming film"Young@Heart." Essentially, it is a documentary about an actual group of elderly folk who sing contemporary rock songs. When I refer to these folk as elderly, it appears that some are in their seventies, most are in their eighties, and a good number of them are in their nineties (during the closing credits, each member was listed with his or her age). The movie is described as a comedy, but I'm not really sure that is accurate. It is a documentary that will certainly make you laugh, and will probably make you cry. Overall, it is an entertaining and heartwarming documentary.
Here is a music video the group shot of them singing the Ramones' tune "I Wanna Be Sedated."
Here is a trailer for the movie:
If you can't get enough, here is the group's video for "I Will Survive" (this wasn't in the movie):
If anyone in Manhattan wants free tickets to another advance screening of the film, let me know. We have four passes.
