10 Movies That Best Capture Middle-Aged Angst According to Collider
"By its very definition, between youth and old age lies middle age. It's a time of life best defined as one's 40s and 50s, and potentially one's early 60s, too. It's not always explored in movies because it's an unpopular stage of life, to be perfectly blunt. Those who are young don't look forward to it, and while old age has its own difficulties, at least some who get there experience comfort in retirement, and maybe a gentler pace of life (the twilight years, so to speak). However, just because most films don't explicitly explore the trials and tribulations of the middle-aged doesn't mean that none touch it. The following 10 films aim to showcase how a usually "boring" or "middling" period of one's life can be explored in ways that are interesting, entertaining, and emotional. Throughout a variety of genres, each manages to explore midlife crises and general middle-aged angst in engaging, insightful ways." - collider.com
