Poms

The movie Poms directed by Zara Hayes makes one feel good to see a group of women older than 60 living their life with enthusiasm and helping each other to enjoy life. Diane Keaton as Martha is extremely pleasant and well suited for the role. Martha leaves NY and heads to Sun Sprngs,GA retirement community after she refuses treatment for her cancer. Martha decides to let cancer run its course till her end. Martha makes friends with Sheryl (beaming Jacki Weaver) and decides to do something fun in community. Martha does not tell others about her cancer diagnosis and encourages all to be active and get involved in cheerleading group. Rhea Perlman ( Carla from Cheers) as Alice and Phyllis Somerville as Helen have their own stories. Helen's son has control over her finances. The movie is about elderly women who still have a desire to live and not to be discarded just because they have sagging breasts . The movie is very pleasant and as always , Diane Keaton does good work. Needs editing. Not Oscar worthy but definitely makes one feel good to see life in all ages.
