Q – tips say: Was OK – enjoyed it. Drama about facing Alzheimer’s. Need to know: that Live Twice, Love Once is a Spanish-language film set in and around Valencia, Spain. It’s a dramatic story, incorporating comedy and irony, about a university mathematics professor after a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease. As the retired professor’s condition worsens, his relationship with his exasperating but well-meaning daughter and his own awareness of what is to come send him on a journey to find an early love that he’s never forgotten. Some profanity is included, mostly “f–k,” often uttered by a precocious 11-year-old. While there’s no sexuality, infidelity plays a role in the story. Wine is consumed in social settings; some drunkenness occurs at a boisterous wedding. For English-speaking audiences, the film is available on Netflix, either translated (dubbed) into English or with English subtitles.
