The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey

OMG when did Samuel Jackson go from being a top shelf actor to a world class thespian. Seriously the performance he brings to bear here is absolutely stunning and deserving of every award and acologue that exists. It's unfortunate that this is debuting early in the year which is generally not a good time relative to getting acknowledgment for rewards.

The insight and sensitivity that this program shows towards both the realities of dementia and the realities of dealing with unresolved trauma long term are amazing. Just try not to fall in love with Ptolemy Gray. Just try not to get drawn into this story. Just try not to laugh, cry and to think this over long after you are done viewing it. This is what the best kind of programming is all about. Don't miss this or you will miss something very important.
