A rather empty experience

I do feel bad for being so harsh to an indie film, but it really has an emptiness to it. Not because of the depressing nature of the film but of the makeup of the film, because it ends and I wonder why this movie exists. I question if the creatives had real motivation behind it. For me, the only reason I watched it was because I knew someone that was in it.Joe Lo Truglio was definitely the best part. The whole cancer thing just feels conjured up by writers, which it was, but if you do it right you feel more than just pity for the main character.

Dying on Your Own Terms

This is an Emotional film about dying on your own terms. Anna (Anna Camp) is dying from cancer. The film starts with having already decided how she wants to die. She is simply coming home to make amends with her brother before she dies. What in sue is a powerful film about the importance of being with the people you love. It also raises interesting questions about what it means to die with dignity. I cried for almost the entire film, even though there are tones of beautiful little family moments. I know a lot of people won't agree with Anna's decisions, but I think the film highlights the importance of thinking about this issue and seeing both sides. Anna Camp's performance was simply amazing. It's possibly her best performance ever. This movie is hard to come by since there was no DVD, and streaming is limited. But I would defiantly seek this film out. If for nothing else to see Anna's amazing performance.
