TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE(REACTION PAPER)

A film tuesdays with Morrie is all about the story of a old man,young man and a life greatest lesson.
It’s been ten years since Mitch shared the wisdom of Morrie with the world. Mitch reflects the meaning of Morrie’s life lessons and the gentle,irrevocable impact of their Tuesdays sessions all those years ago.
He treats like was a grandparent , or a teacher, or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, helped you see the world as a more profound place, gave you sound advice to help you make your way through it. For Mitch that person was Morrie Schwartz, his college professor from nearly twenty years ago.
As a student Mitch was especially drawn to his sociology professor, Morris Schwartz. On graduation he vowed to keep in touch with him, which he failed to do until 1994, when he saw a segment about Schwartz on the TV program Nightline, and learned that he had just been diagnosed with Lou Gehrig’s disease. By then a sports columnist for the Detroit Free Press and author of six books, including Fab Five, Mitch was idled by the newspaper strike in the Motor City and so had the opportunity to visit Schwartz in Boston every week until the older man died. Their dialogue is the subject of this moving book in which Schwartz discourses on life,self-pity,regrets,aging,love and death, offering aphorisms.Mitch Albom introduced the wisdom of a man named Morrie with the moving account of the time he spent with him before his death, Tuesdays with Morrie also penned sports-oriented nonfiction, and his popular newspaper columns have been collected into anthologies.
