Have you been?

A lovely place to visit, I am told, when one is  unstressed, unencumbered, unfettered and unrealistic.

I think I was there, on cloud 9 that is, hmmmm, perhaps a half dozen times in my life. No doubt, associated with the arrival of my children and grandchildren. Other than that, at the moment, I seem to be drawing a blank. So sad.

Now, I have an opportunity to experience an others' Cloud 9 moment in the form of a movie by that same name.

Plus, to make it even more intriguing, the protagonists in this film are  67 and 77 years of age, respectively.
And, they enter into a passionate love affair. And, the filming of this affair seems to be shot in all their aging, wrinkly, glory. And, her daughter (with the cuckolded father very much alive) appears to condone her mothers behavior. And, so do her friends.

Watch the trailer, read the review if you missed the Times article.

I am eager to see this film, perhaps to validate my observations in the first time were I stated the obvious, regale in what and who you are…Yeah sure, I'd just as soon have someone shooting me, without filters, gauze and blindfolds on, as I would single handedly fly a glider plane. Nonetheless, if I can, for a brief and fleeting moment, experience someone else's Cloud 9, that's a good thing.
