"Death is necessary without it their would be no life. Thank the people that deal with death because they see life as well. Also the way the protagonist got closure with a certain family member was brilliant. Would watch again. "

"Watched this when it was in theaters and when I went to Costco after the movie I broke down into tears while in line to buy a pizza. A truly moving film that will stick with you for years in the best possible way. I’ve seen many movies and this will always be among the best. "
