5 FLIGHTS UP

If like me, you enjoy Diane Keaton in everything, then of course you are going to love this movie. 5 Flights Up tells the story of an older couple (played by Keaton and Morgan Freeman) who are thinking of selling their apartment after living in it for decades. With no lift access, they must walk five flight of stairs every day, hence the title.

As they start to show their house and make the decision, the story also delves deep into their history and lives together as well as how their interracial relationship started. You get a good sense of who this couple is, how they got to where they are through outside factors and how they deal with potential buyers. It is a heart-warming and uplifting story about love and friendship. If you enjoy both these actors then you will enjoy the movie. (LB)
