Memories of Tomorrow, new movie about Alzheimer’s

In a previous post, Liz mentioned Hollywood movies dealing with Alzheimer’s disease.  I learned recently about a new movie, Memories of Tomorrow, starring and produced by Japanese actor, Ken Wanatabe.

You’ll find very interesting and informative interview of Ken Wanatabe at ComingSoon.net will give you insight about how he discovered the book and decided to make this movie. 

“He plays the manager of a high profile ad agency whose life is altered when he starts showing the early stages of Alzheimer’s at age 49.”

Whereas many of the movies dealing with Alzheimer’s portrayed someone who contracted this disease later in life.  Memories of Tomorrow is about early onset Alzheimer’s.  I’m looking forward to seeing this movie when it’s available.
