Wait, if it's the movie I' m thinking about, the object is a suitcase with a lot of vials that contained a formula/elixir/potion-thing that the neighbor used to live longer, but there was only one dose left (which he gives to the other boy). The neighbor died because he decided to stop drinking them because he had lived enough already, yada yada. I think he said that each dose was enough to gain "one full, healthy life", or something like that.

EDIT: I think I found it! http://movies.tvguide.com/mr-rices-secret/review/134999 It's known both as 'Mr. Rice's Secret' and 'Exhuming Mr. Rice' And ohmygodDavidBowieisinitwhywasn'tIinformedofthis
