Young@Heart (2007)

 
A documentary on a chorus of senior citizens from Massachusetts who cover songs by Jimi Hendrix, Coldplay, Sonic Youth, and other unexpected musicians.
 
Good documentary with some surprises (the music choices!), heart-rending scenes and a few insights what it can be like to grow old.
 
Maltin***:  "Proving that age is all about attitude and a desire for "Staying Alive" (one of the highlighted tunes), this moving film captures moments of glory and sorrow as these lively subjects rehearse their remarkable show."
