Yeah, it's about aging. Some will watch humans hack, shoot, mutilate, and blow up folks for 3 hours, but a film that honestly looks at the most challenging part of anyone's life virtually is ignored.
Now, I know "art" films aren't for everyone here, but the fact that NO one sees such a courageous, no-holds barred look at aging as a worthwhile watch says something.
It truly was the best film of the year, with only one or two serious contenders (not nominated for Oscar).
