I would never send my mother there. The only comfort I need is you. But old age is not about commodities. Like Betty Sullivan from my film, who is looking for relationships, coming to the conclusion that it's hard to find one man that shares all her interests. So she needs at least two and she put an ad in the paper screening those people, telling who she is and ending up with an interesting companion.
Seniors have a tremendous richness of thought and experiences, and no way to utilize it .
They don't have even a talk show. Well, I think that the baby boomers will be much more outspoken, and these things will be the ongoing things. But I would not like to really discount the existing seniors, who have a great story to tell. They are the war veterans. They are the fifties people.
