A good movie about going out with dignity.

This movie was a major tearjerker. It wasn't about homosexuality, or AIDS, but about anyone who is dying and must make a decision on whether to fade away and become a person they are not or let go of everything and settle their business. Eric Roberts is unlike I have ever seen him before; he is touching. I really do think this film is excellant and you anyone should try watching it sometime. It is rather long and you do begin to feel as thou you are a part of his family and eventually you'll cry.
