Supernova

 A touching story of two long-term lovers who are being torn apart by the encroaching dementia of one of them. Firth and Tucci have a lived-in-relationship feel of people who have an easiness between them, and their journey as they travel through the lakes district of England to catch up with family on the way to a concert by Firth is full of affection, confrontation and ultimate heartbreak - the last line of dialogue in the film lugged tears out of me. Also looks gorgeous - there's a shot of the English countryside that looks painted.
