Tuesdays with Morrie (1999)

Tuesdays with Morrie DVD

Unfortunately I have not been able to view this DVD as it is in a format only available in America and not available in AUSTRALIA so have wasted my money, time and effort. I was looking forward to seing this as I have bought and read the book and I was moved by it greatly. November 11, 2008

Great Movie

I had to watch for a Psych class...which usually means the movie isn't going to be good...but I am so glad I purchased...I loved it! August 29, 2008

Deeply Moving and Inspiring

I found it to be a delightful "coincidence" that this movie arrived in the mailbox on a Tuesday, of all days. This was just the first of a series of moments of delight as a dying teacher named Morrie teaches the greatest lesson of all: life. His student is Mitch, a workaholic who is afraid of death, crying and love.

This movie will undoubtedly make you want to kick up your heels and
enjoy the simple things in life as you watch an incredible transformation
take place.

Be prepared to feel unbridled joy and a childlike sense of wonder as you
attend Morrie's final and best course. June 11, 2008

Tuesdays with Morrie/DVD/movie

Jack Lemmon was wonderful in his role as Morrie showing his own authentic aging in this movie which helped make the story more genuinely real. I have shown this true life story to my high school students, and it has brought tears to their eyes and an inkling of what lessons one can learn through experiecing even death--especially, such a devastating one as ALS. There were some changes in the movie of some aspects of the book TUESDAYS with MORRIE ,which is all the more reason to read the book as well which is totally factual. The ABC documentary of Ted Koppel's interviews with Morrie and the author--Mitch Ablom--is a perfect followup to the movie---extremely insightful, showing the reality of death, disease,and most of all, love and hope! The Lessons of Life-- ABC's Ted Koppel's three interviews with Morrie as the disease progressed throughout his body but not his spirit--- are inspirational and touching!! June 10, 2008

Great film

Tuesdays with Morrie
I read the book version of this film as an assignment in college, so when I saw there was a video I decided to get it and see how it compared. There are some slight differences, like with any adaptation to film, but overall the film maker did a great job with this one. After viewing this for myself, I decided I would get a copy for several of my family members, who are less avid readers than myself. Everyone has loved it so far. It is a great story and will lift your heart (and perhaps bring a tear). A MUST SEE for everyone who faces difficult health problems or family members who do. It will give a new perspective of life and help to refocus your energy into something more positive. June 8, 2008
