5.0 out of 5 stars Incredibly Inspiring, October 11, 2007

This review is from: Run Granny Run (DVD)

This film is about so much more than an unexpected Senate run by a senior citizen. It is about making the most of every minute of our lives, of one woman's determination to help make the world a better place and step up to the plate in spite of a million reasons not to. It's about age, yet it's not just about age. We see through Doris's eyes how an elderly person is sometimes dismissed and treated like a child, in spite of an obviously quick mind and reported history as a smart and successful businesswoman. Yet we also see Doris as the "regular citizen" who fights for what she believes in and doesn't wait for others to do it -- a lesson we all can learn at any age. I loved this film!

This review is from: Run Granny Run (DVD)

Filmmaker Marlo Poras has done it again with another beautiful documentary film that captures the heart, soul, and courage of an American original, Doris "Granny D" Haddock. At the age of 90 she walks across the US to bring attention to corruption in politics, and at the age of 94 she runs for the US senate! I can't even get up in the morning and put on pants! Poras frames the life of this troublemaker in both intimate and expansive ways, connecting her own struggles as a great great grandmother fighting mortality and a citizen fighting to make America the country worth being proud of again. A marvelous film.

Granny D is an amazing story that should inspire anyone to say, "I can do it, or at least, I can try". Her spirit is wonderful to see and anyone who cares about anything should see this and realize how to truly make meaningful change.
