Someone I'm collaborating with on a community service project with students had me show this movie to my students.

In the first half I was non-plussed, perhaps because of sleepiness. In the second half, I cried more than once. The underdog triumphing is a formula that works for me, and others, on a deep level, and the over-dog to the under-dog (old people) being death gives this movie a depth that underdog stories don't often have, I believe. The scene in which the chorus performs for men in a prison is a killer.
