Plot[edit]
Mitch Albom (Hank Azaria) became caught up with his career as a sport commentator and journalist. His girlfriend, Janine (Wendy Moniz), a backup singer feels that he never places her as a priority. Mitch is consistently doing six things at once. One evening, while on the telephone with Janine, Mitch flips through tv channels and lands on an edition of Nightline where he sees Morrie Schwartz (Jack Lemmon) being interviewed by Ted Koppel. Morrie discusses his current health and lets everyone know he is dying of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, often referred to as 'Lou Gehrig's disease' or ALS. Morrie a retired sociology professor from Brandeis University comes on the show to describe his final journey.
As life goes on with work and balancing his relationship with Janine, Mitch feels bothered he never got a chance to visit his old professor. Feeling so moved by the interview, Mitch reaches out for a visit with Morrie after sixteen years of no contact. Morrie has an affinity with food and it becomes a regular endeavor with his visits with Mitch. Office hours during university were on Tuesdays, Morrie would grade papers and critique student’s assignments, Mitch now makes it a habit to visit him every Tuesday. Connie (Caroline Aaron), Morrie’s home nurse, is his primary care taker. After leaving Morrie, Mitch continues working and can’t find a groove with Janine.
Mitch returns and witnesses a “living funeral” where friends and family come to honor Morrie while he is still alive, per Morrie’s request. As the two get reacquainted, they participate in several thoughtful and reflective conversations about various substantial topics. Morrie divulges on many stories on when he was a young boy and how his relationships unfolded between his mother, stepmother, and father. Back home Mitch continues with his impressive and busy journalism career, and while out on a story he receives a call from Janine breaking up with him.
Another visit prompts Mitch to officially bring a recording device to capture all of Morrie’s powerful pieces of advice and all his anecdotes. Morrie and Mitch grow closer and closer with each visit, some significant topics that were explored were death, love, marriage, family, and relationships. The time spent with Morrie starts to affect Mitch’s position at work, he argues with his boss and decides to prioritize his visits with Morrie. Mitch, being so immersed in this new world asks Connie to teach him a few skills to aide Morrie when no one else is around. New tasks Mitch learn include: helping Morrie in and out of his wheelchair, using his oxygen tank, feeding Morrie, and even special massages.
Finding value and meaning in Morrie’s advice Mitch proposes to Janine via letter, she rejects him and comes along on one of his visits to Morrie’s home. Janine notices a change in Mitch’s personality in the way he knows what to do around Morrie from the oxygen tank assistance to cleaning Morrie’s crying eyes. Janine and Morrie speak without Mitch in the room. Later, on an airplane on their way home Mitch and Janine make up and decide a proper proposal should take place.
On a rainy visit, Mitch brings Morrie food, but learns he has not been able to eat solid foods for some time. Charlotte (Bonnie Bartlett), Morrie’s wife advises Mitch that his visits have a great impact on Morrie. Mitch notices how the illness is progressing in a devastating way. They continue to go back and forth on difficult topics, regret, spiritual life, forgiveness, and love. Morrie reiterates that humans must love another or die. He recounts the story of his father’s death. Mitch receives a call from Walter (John Carroll Lynch), his boss, after the exchange they found middle ground to allow Mitch to write again. Mitch takes Janine to the islands and propose there. Once back home, Mitch requests to have all of his Tuesdays off to continue his visits with Morrie.
On a snowy visit, Mitch asks Morrie what a perfect day would be like. Morrie answers a simple answer with friends, family, food, dancing, and choosing his burial site. Morrie asks Mitch to visit once he has passed, breaking his heart. Mitch cries and hugs his old friend. Mitch promises to come back next Tuesday.

• Acceptance – Morrie may have periods of frustration and anger, but he moves on from those episodes and accepts things as they are. He knows there is no cure and pitying himself will not help him accomplish the things he has left to do with his short amount of time.
• Open communication – Mitch at one point turns off the recording device and asks to speak candidly with Morrie. Morrie advises Mitch they have had an open and honest way of communicating with one another since the beginning of his visits.
• Friendship – After all the hardships and barriers that were broken down, through constant honest, self-reflection on both Morrie’s and Mitch’s part a true strong friendship was formed at the end of the film.
