The Senior Center of West Seattle is hosting a free screening of the movie “Age of Love,” a documentary that follows the adventures of 30 seniors who sign up for a first-of-its-kind Speed Dating event exclusively for 70 to 90 year olds.

From anxious anticipation through dates that follow, it’s a comic and poignant tale of intrepid seniors who lay their hearts on the line and discover how dreams and desires change—or don’t change—from first love to the far reaches of life.

People of all ages are invited to join us on Thursday, February 9 at 2pm for this free screening. 4217 SW Oregon St. Call 206 932 4044 x1 to register. This screening is sponsored by Senior Care Coalition.

Some praise for the film…

“THE AGE OF LOVE shows us that love is ageless. It’s a great film for older audiences as well as for college students studying relationships and for professionals working with older populations. Too often films ignore the full humanity of older men and women and forget that they can be husbands, wives and lovers. The Age of Love is a wonderful corrective to all those films that deny seniors the full range of who they are and who they can be.” Dr. Pepper Schwartz, AARP LOVE AND RELATIONSHIP AMBASSADOR

“Steven Loring does a fantastic job in taking you deep into a world that – for many of us – may never have even crossed our minds… No matter what your age, THE AGE OF LOVE is one film your will want to experience, as it shares a real story full of emotion and that will assure you, with each passing year, the longing for love and the touch of someone near never goes away.” Kathy Kaiser, WE ARE MOVIE GEEKS
“Paints a rich portrait of what it’s like to age and still harbor a sense

“The film works so well because of the sense that Loring is determined to treat his subjects with the dignity they deserve. Contrary to what society constantly seems to tell us, growing older doesn’t mean that we cease to have the same desires as anyone else, and it’s heartening to see THE AGE OF LOVE take those desires seriously.” Adam Lubitow, THE ROCHESTER CITY NEWSPAPER
