Editorial Reviews

The Young@Heart Chorus is a vocal group from Northampton, MA, who have earned an international reputation for their unique interpretations of songs by Sonic Youth, the Ramones, and the Clash. However, this isn't a teenage garage band attacking the classic punk rock songbook -- the Young@Heart Chorus is comprised of 22 senior citizens whose average age is 80, and under director Bob Cilman they've gained a degree of fame for their enthusiastic a cappella renditions of well-known rock & roll tunes. Filmmaker Stephen Walker spent several weeks with the members of the Young@Heart Chorus as they rehearsed for their annual concert in Northampton, and Young@Heart is a documentary which offers a look at their rigorous rehearsal process, the background of several members, and their efforts to stay active and think positive, even as their friends succumb to old age. Produced for British television, Young@Heart was screened in competition at the 2007 Los Angeles Film Festival. Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Young @ Heart will Make Your Heart Singby skiffymom

July 20, 2009: This is a heartwarming documentary about a choir of seniors (70s and older, for the most part) who sing pop and punk hits from recent decades with charm and verve.

The filmmakers introduce viewers in some depth to several choir members and the director. Their interviews add substance and nuance, and some of their insights are key to appreciating the drama that unfolds as several choir members become ill or worse.

I also prize this film for its affirmation of the life-giving power of the arts to enrich, strengthen and revitalize us, even when we are not at the height of our powers.

What an inspiration!by Anonymous

July 06, 2009: This documovie was just amazing. I saw it first with my daughter. We laughed and cried. She took her entire family to see it and even the ten year old loved it. It was so inspiring to see seniors struggling to stay viable in their twilight years. It was heart wrenching to see what the aging process does to our minds and our bodies and it was exhilarating to see that you can't keep the spirit down!
