DVD Reviews of ABC News presents Morrie Schwartz - Lessons on Living

DVD Review: Excellent Insights on how to live ones final days
Summary: 5 Stars

Although a lot of people I spoke with have heard of Tuesdays with Morrie, no one had seen it on television. After watching the interview with Ted Koppel it brought out a lot of insight into how one thinks at the end of life knowing we all would like more time with our loved ones and those close to us. Living day by day wondering if the choices we make to extend that time are the best ones for us and those around us.

DVD Review: excellent
Summary: 5 Stars

An excellent teacher and role model for facing death in such a difficult circumstances with unbelievable grace and dignity.

DVD Review: Terrfic
Summary: 5 Stars

Lessons in living is what life is all about. Ted's interviews with Morrie bring life to the forefront. My only wish is that I never met with Morrie Schwartz. What two wonderful men

DVD Review: Lessons on Living
Summary: 4 Stars

Absolutely a priceless documentary which we all will be able to relate to since we all must someday face our own death and/or that of those we love. These interviews by Ted Koppel with Morrie give a wonderful view of a wonderful older man's experience of the downhill slope of ALS and his impending death. His expression of his thoughts with such great honesty and insight are priceless and life-changing. Since my daughters' father at age 57 was just diagnosed with ALS and is already using a wheel chair, I got the DVD for them to see. They really felt appreciative and comforted in a bittersweet way from seeing this one of a kind documentary of Morrie. They both also read the book "Tuesdays with Morrie" which is also a "must read"!!

DVD Review: GOOD PURCHASE !!
Summary: 5 Stars

I read "Tuesdays with Morrie" and was very curious to see what Morrie looked like, as well as seeing the "real" Morrie. What a special man!! Ted Koppel was one of my favorite interviewers. It was nice to see the soft spot Ted had for Morrie. This DVD gives you the opportunity to see Morrie in all his modest greatness. He must have been an exceptional teacher/professor.
