10/10
Not sad, if you look at the point...

Not quite a spoiler, but if you haven't seen this short and want a reason to, read this...

I saw this movie in a class at CSULB years ago. The film showed how a family dealt with the process of a loved one aging. While most of the family talked to Peege like a child, the one nephew reminisced with Peege about things like getting drunk and having fun. he reminded her that she lived her life, and he tried to bring back those memories.

Peege has a message on several levels. To those of us who are young and able bodied, make sure to have some fun with your life! for those who have aging family members, remind them of the fun they have had in their life. and, to the aging, remember that your family loves you, and keep the door open as long as possible for love and memories.

So, I'd say watch it until the very end, and you'll see it's not sad, but a movie to remind us how we can approach our aging loved ones, and make their twilight years the best they can.
