The Film Behind
the Film
The idea for The Creative Power of Aging came from an award-winning film that has been aired on hundreds of public television stations across the country. Narrated by Walter Cronkite at age 90, Do Not Go Gently is an hour-long documentary about the power of imagination in aging. Spotlighted in the film are three extraordinary artists in their 80s, 90s and 100s who, in their youth, fundamentally influenced American culture; and now in old age, continue to contribute. The science of creativity and aging is also discussed. In addition, the film illustrates the principles of creativity applied to people with Alzheimer’s disease and other disabilities of old age at day care centers and nursing homes in Washington D.C.
