I should acknowledge the support, practically the sponsorship, from
Boycotting Trends in helping build up my collection of films starring the older generation. And stretching over a good few years of film-making, it is interesting to see how the overly genteel likes of
Ladies in Lavender and
My House in Umbria have been largely eased out (though not completely, as per
My Old Lady) in favour of more nuanced takes on the ageing process.
