Beautiful.
Oliver Sacks was a very special soul. His motivation was Love. And his sensitivity and childlike sense of curiosity about his patients and who these people were inside and his natural sense of playfulness and wonder informed his brilliant mind as a doctor. He lived outside and inside the bld beautifully. I did not know him but feel as if I did and I surely wish I had. I think we might have become good friends. " Awakenings" remains one of my very favorite films. I've seen it many times ( as I did on Christmas Day) and love it more each time. Kate - how blessed you were to have worked so closely with Oliver and to have known him as well as you did. You carry a treasure trove of history and I hope you will put those memories into a book if you have not done so already. Oliver Sacks was a completely authentic human being. Souls like his are rare and I'm so glad you are all taking the time to honor his remarkable life. Thank you. Martha Magee
Mr. De Niro you gave a great performance on Awakening which I watched many many years ago. And also Mr. Robin Williams was good. How Mr. De Niro was able to stay with his face and body twisted during the film is amazing to me; that is a devotion to bring the character. Mr. De Niro thank you for all your movies. I enjoy all of them all the time. Are you going to make anymore movies after this pandemic.? Please say yes. :)
