Any Day Now ...


I ordered this film a week or so ago. It's been sitting on my desk, waiting for the right time to watch it. I knew, from the trailer, that I would need uninterrupted time to watch it and space to deal with the power of the story. I was right. We watched it Saturday morning, early. It's a hard film to watch. The performances are wonderful, all three men embody their characters and are all intensely likable people. I never promote products on this blog (I don't think I do anyways) but here I'm going to make it easy ...

for Canadians ... any day now at amazon.ca

for those in the UK ... any day now amazon uk (warning this requires a region 1 or multiregion player)

for those in the US ... any day now at amazon us

for those in Australia ... any day now Australia

Sorry, for those in other countries, I've failed miserably. I've added Australia after a comment from John.

Anyone from anywhere else, please let me know the link and I'll post it.

Warning: hard film to watch

Proviso: important film to watch

PS I believe it's important that we in either the disability community or the LGBTQ+ community support our story-tellers.

    Dave, does the movie have captions? I couldn't tell from the Amazon description (for some reason, Amazon doesn't seem to think this is important information to include in a description for a DVD/blueray etc. :-( :-( :-(

    Thanks,

    Geez, the trailer is enough to bring you to tears. For one thing the directors were brave enough to cast a Down's Syndrome character with an actor who has Down's Syndrome.

    Andrea, I'm sad to say I didn't notice, I usually check but, this time didn't. I'm away from home for a week. I'll let you know when I get home.

    The trailer is incredible! I can believe that it's both difficult and important to watch!
