This is high on my to watch list, anybody seen it? Welles is quoted as saying "Oh my God, that's the saddest movie ever made" Said to be an inspiration for Tokyo Story....

People need their privacy and while I agree that people should take care of their aging parents having them live with you and run your home isn't a working solution (at least it isn't for the most).

Make Way For Tomorrow, is a great film with and unusual subject mater...it's very bittersweet touching while being very hard to watch.
