My Thoughts:
  
   When I heard the music at the beginning, I was expecting something serious and sad, instead what I received was a fun light short about looking forward to death. I actually bursted out laughing at parts of the film. I absolutely love the way the doctor and the nurses were portrayed and I love the way the old woman has a bit of fire in her spirit. What did you think?
