Youth
Fred and Mick, two old friends, are on vacation in an elegant hotel at the foot of the Alps. While Mick scrambles to finish the screenplay for what he imagines will be his last important film, Fred has no intention of resuming his musical career. The two men reflect on their past, each finding that some of the most important experiences can come later in life.

Youth is a meditation on aging, on friendship, on love, loss, wisdom, disillusionment, pain.August 10, 2016
A sometimes Felliniesque exercise in irksome pretension and confounding indulgence grounded by two tremendous performances and somehow, despite itself, offering flashes of profound loveliness.December 25, 2015
Sumptuous, sincere and built on aging bones, "Youth" is a wonder of a film, a look back at life's sprawling possibilities, dark corners and aspirations.December 17, 2015
There is little life here. Only artifice. And some howlingly awful dialogue.December 17, 2015
Absolutely beautiful and sometimes maddening while never offering easy answers.December 21, 2015
Watching Youth, you'd swear Fellini had risen from his grave and returned to make another movie.December 24, 2015
Age is more than just a number, Youth tells us. What really matters, though, is whether you're going to let that number define you.
