Away From Her

Away From HerThe reason I am writing this review, instead of Shaun, is that amazingly I stayed awake until the end and Shaun dropped off!

A devoted couple are forced to spend one month apart when the wife admits herself into a care home as she is suffering from Alzheimer’s. But when her husband eagerly returns to visit her he finds that her affections have turned toward another patient, Aubury, and now after 40 years of marriage she does not recognise her husband at all. But he is very persistent……

It is very well acted and demonstrated that sometimes we have sympathy the person that is suffering from the disease, but it is the people they are closest to that are affected the most.
