    • Trivia
      The lighthouse featured in the film, and on the poster, is the Point Arena Lighthouse, located on one of the furthest West points of the Continental United States, near Manchester, California. The house in the film, was a shell built by the production team, and was torn down after filming. The only permanent structures near the lighthouse are some vacation rental units, formerly Coast Guard barracks, and the Lighthouse Keeper's residence, which is now a museum maintained by local volunteers. The lighthouse has recently undergone renovations, and is open to the public.

    My favourite Mel Gisbon Movie.
    Forever Young is a brilliant movie, which has been wonderfully directed by Steve Miner and acted by the brilliant Mel Gibson, Jamie Lee Curtis and a young Elijah Wood who all give great performances here. Mel Gibson should of got an Oscar nomination for this role. If you haven't seen Forever Young then I definitely recommend it to anyone and I give this movie a well deserving 10/10.
