Live Twice, Love Once (2019)
A widowed, retired professor is diagnosed with Alzheimers and decides to track down a teenage crush. His granddaughter stows away with him and soon her parents have joined the trip as well.
Though the story sneaked into "feelings engaged" territory a couple of times, it always felt cheap somehow. Like this fixation on a ghost from his youth is somehow cute or romantic, when it felt to me that it simply reduced his actual life to second-best. I just could not get on-board.
