Amazon.com essential video
This warmhearted TV offering based on Mitch Albom's nonfiction bestseller of the same name dives right into the action, with Morrie (Jack Lemmon) collapsing within the first three minutes. Then it's cut to Mitch's hectic life as a sports columnist cum television host and long-term, often long-distance boyfriend. But this Mick Jackson-directed film slows considerably after the introductions as former student Mitch (Hank Azaria) learns his beloved professor is dying of ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). He reconnects with his mentor and begins learning from him all over again, this time about life. Oprah Winfrey produced this 88-minute film, and her renowned touchy-feely quality is prominent as Mitch learns to love both Morrie and his own girlfriend. Azaria, better known for somewhat goofy roles (The Birdcage, the dogwalker on TV's Mad About You) conveys an intelligent, if edgy dignity, and double Oscar winner Lemmon turns in his usual exquisite performance, giving even the most obvious moments touches of subtlety. --Kimberly Heinrichs

This inspiring heartfelt tearjerker is as good as "made for TV movies" get! Jack Lemmon delivers a very memorable performance in this poignant tale of life, love and death! If your not reaching for the tissue box throughout this wonderful film, you need to check your pulse. The film will inspire you to live life to the fullest and not to hold grudges...a complete waste of energy! The DVD has closed caption, but not much else. the DVD transfer is very good.

Unfortunately I have not been able to view this DVD as it is in a format only available in America and not available in AUSTRALIA so have wasted my money, time and effort. I was looking forward to seing this as I have bought and read the book and I was moved by it greatly.
Great Movie August 29, 2008

I had to watch for a Psych class...which usually means the movie isn't going to be good...but I am so glad I purchased...I loved it!

I found it to be a delightful "coincidence" that this movie arrived in the mailbox on a Tuesday, of all days. This was just the first of a series of moments of delight as a dying teacher named Morrie teaches the greatest lesson of all: life. His student is Mitch, a workaholic who is afraid of death, crying and love.
This movie will undoubtedly make you want to kick up your heels and
enjoy the simple things in life as you watch an incredible transformation
take place.
Be prepared to feel unbridled joy and a childlike sense of wonder as you
attend Morrie's final and best course.
