How to Live Forever **

You get more of the flavor by paying attention to the asterisk in "How to Live Forever*" (*Results May Vary). Baby Boomer Mark Wexler travels the world looking for the secrets to long life, and interviews many researchers, hucksters, celebrities, funeral directors, centenarians, and the oddly badly-dressed old age verifier for the Guinness Book of World Records. It's often fascinating, and ends up being more of a movie about How to Live, forget the Forever part. It's also a bit disjointed, and could have used more focus in the writing and organization. Rent this one if your interested, but I wouldn't recommend a trip to the cinema to see it.
