For Better or For Worse
1993, 55 minutes
This entertaining documentary is an honest look at five culturally diverse couples married
for fifty years or longer. For Better or For Worse attempts to answer questions that focus on issues of long-term
commitments. In candid interviews, each couple discusses their private lives, covering the good and bad times during their
relationships. In addition to how they met, each couple openly discusses sensitive topics such as their devotion to each
other, sex, Alzheimer's disease, life and death. Drawing on rich storehouses of wisdom, they share stories of their journeys
that range from living room jam sessions, to an off-Broadway gay theatre in New York, and the backwoods of northern
California. Reflecting on the diversity and fullness of the American experience, their comments offer insight into what is
one of the most rewarding undertakings in life, for better or for worse.
