“Lessons from 100” is a documentary short in production in 2024. It features Jack Weber, turning 100 years old, in conversation with his filmmaker grandson, as they explore his life and how much the world has changed over the last century. Along with the conversations, the documentary includes the 100th birthday celebrations, home movies, still photographs, and visits to important places and events from both Jack’s past and daily life. By exploring Jack’s journey, we learn poignant lessons we can all take to heart – not only what it takes to live a long life, but what we need to do to make it a meaningful life.
The expected documentary release date is 2025.
Jack Weber, born in 1924, published his memoir (Jack Weber, Here!) last year and it is available on Amazon. It is an incredibly moving story about love, loss, and the power of resilience, written with insight and humor by a member of the Greatest Generation. Spanning nearly a century of American history, his story teaches us to grab onto life and to never give up.
