Trivia
The pickup truck Bridget runs past and does a double take on has a sign on the door for Hoffsteader construction. Presumably a nod or subliminal homage to Douglas Hofsteadter, a notable cognitive science professor, and Hofsteadter's law which states that 'it will always take longer than you expect, even taking into consideration Hofsteadter's law.' Which is relative to the premise of the movie.

Quotes
Nick: You know why they get better in memory care? Because they don't have people in their face all the time saying, "Don't forget me, please don't forget me, you're losing your mind". The one blessing of this disease is that they don't remember that they don't remember, until you go and tell them.

Award worthy Film !! Especially Robert Forster as Burt. He practically steals all his scenes. Important and Touching Story
