No Letting Go (2015)
10/10
VERY PERSONAL TO ME

Warning: Spoilers
WOW!! OMG!! I just watched this amazing movie via AMAZON Prime. Although the movie, based on true events, was well acted, written & directed, the theme of depression/bi polar was very personal. In 2017, at the age of 43, my gay partner(Kris), of 11 years, lost his fight with depression, anxiety & related medical issues. That being said, I agree with the overall rating achieved by the movie. Although the performances of the "younger aged" actors, were good, I would be remiss , unlike other reviewers, if I did not single out & commend the absolutely outstanding performances of Noah Silverman(Timothy at 17) and Jan Uczkowski(Kyle, older brother). As far as I'm concerned, both actors, especially Noah, were, in part, responsible for the success of this "hidden gem". I assume that in real life, the psychiatrist & special treatment home, portrayed in the movie, allowed the "real" Timothy to recover well along with the meds given
