Personally, I'm not the easiest crier. At most I would say I've shed one or two tears. This movie had me bawling by the end. Anthony Hopkins performance in this movie is unmatched. The balance between the cast is both confusing and understandable. Personally the confusion kept me on my toes and helped me connect with Hopkins character. It's an incredible movie and the director did an incredible job on portraying Dementia both from an insider and outsider perspective.
