Despite the relatively conventional filmmaking, what comes through most strongly in this portrait is Sacks' uniqueness -- a quality, as he said himself, which he shared with everyone else who has ever lived.

It is a master class in how to die but also a master class in how to live -- as he says, how to live with what can't be changed and frame it as a story to give it meaning.
