(Apologies if I've posted this in the wrong section.)This gentle comedy, starring Ted Danson, is based on a real life documentary. It was about an older man finding purpose and companionship when he worked undercover, posing as a resident at an independent living facility, for a detective agency in Chile.
In the US fictionalised version of the story, the facility is very upmarket and nobody has financial issues. Nevertheless, it touched on issues of loneliness, difficulties of parent-child relationships, death and dementia.
It was beautiful and bittersweet. I cried my eyes out at the last episode when it made me recall a moment with my mum.
If you haven't watched it, I recommend it.
Actually just finished catching up on outlander last night, was looking for something new.
Thanks. I'll let ya know how I find it.
Fascinating. I will be on this one for sure.
I definitely want to see the Mole Agent now, on which it was based.
Ted Danson did a fantastic job and how cool was it to see Sally Struthers onscreen again?
