I appreciate the book. Anything that touches on the subject of mentorship really strikes a part of my heart (I think, it has to do with the perennial yearning to learn).
I don't have much idea (at least I haven't had the time to search on Youtube) about the TV movie adaptation of the book (in 1999) except that it won 4 Emmy Awards. The book also has a stage adaptation (started in 2002). I've yet to read reviews (for both the TV and stage adaptations). I just find it a bit intriguing how it will work on the stage. Anyway...
Repertory Philippines is producing the local staging of Tuesdays with Morrie as its opening show for its incoming season.
