The Last Farm

This film follows the story of an elderly man. From the beginning it is clear that his daughter is going to check him and his wife into an elderly care home. However, it becomes clear that his wife has died, and he soon does the same. I thought that the plot was the most important part of this film. It was so striking and powerful that I think it is more memorable than the characters. The film only really follows the old man, and he is really the only one we get to know. His wife is dead by the time the film starts, so the audience never really gets to know her. The daughter does not even speak until the second half of the film, even though he has a conversation with her in the begininning. This shows that the plot is more memorable than the characters. One thing I took away from the film is that, as cheesy as it sounds, love really is an incredibly powerful emotion. This man obviously loves his wife more than anything in the world, to the point that he can not imagine living without her. Another interesting thing is that he loves his daughter, but his overwhelming love for his wife overpowers any guilt he might feel about his the sadness his daughter and granddaughter are going to experience. It taught me that love is one of the most powerful emotions in the world.
