Based on a true-life story, TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE is a loving memoir to a man whose lessons on life have much to teach us about ourselves. Academy Award(R)-winner Jack Lemmon (Best Actor, 1974, SAVE THE TIGER) delivers an outstanding performance as Morrie Schwartz, the Brandeis University professor upon whom the best-selling book is based. Hank Azaria (GODZILLA) plays Mitch, an accomplished journalist so driven by his job, he has little time or energy left for anything else. One night, Mitch happens to catch Morrie's appearance on a national news program and learns his old professor is battling Lou Gehrig's disease. After the telecast, Mitch contacts Morrie, and what starts as a visit turns into a pilgrimage as Mitch opens his heart to the lessons Morrie has to teach him. As the bond grows between these two men, Mitch learns that professional commitments don't mean anything without the love of family and friends. Sure to inspire, TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE may just change your views on the meaning of life ... forever.

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.

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.

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!

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!!
