Starring: Julianne Moore, Alec Baldwin, Kristen Stewart, Kate Bosworth, Hunter Parrish and Shane McRaeDirected by: Richard Glatzer and Wash WestmorelandStill Alice is a movie depicting the devastating illness of Alzheimer's disease. It is a very moving and hard hitting film that touches your inner most being. Alice is a linguistics professor who begins to have random memory loss. Alice suffers more frequent episodes and by this time she knows that there is something seriously wrong. After her diagnosis she sits all her family down and tells them the awful news that she has a rare hereditary form of Alzheimer's disease and there is a chance she could have it passed on to her children.Alec Baldwin's performance of playing Alice's husband John is brilliant, he really captures the elements of day to day life, looking after Alice, running the household and holding down his job superbly.Julianne Moore's portrayal of Alice is spell bounding, she reels you in from the offset and her best performance yet and it is no surprise that she scooped Best Actress at the 87th Academy Awards 2015.The movie is pretty much faultless but a negative would be that the children were not involved as much as I would have liked (excluding Kristen Stewart- Lydia).Overall a film worth visiting the cinema, it leaves you thinking of your own mortality, harrowing at times but delivers great awareness and insight of this horrible disease.Favourite Male Performance: Alec Baldwin- John HowlandFavourite Female Performance: Julianne Moore- Alice HowlandPositive: Acting from cast, raised awarenessNegative: The lack of involvement of the childrenOverall Rating: 8.5/10
