This film tells the story of a young woman who is diagnosed with a very rare form of cancer at the age of seventeen. She keeps on fighting with the greatest support from her friends and family.
"Kiss and Cry" is a really beautiful film. The characters are all beautiful within and without. Carly's brave spirit is inspirational. The fact that her family, classmates and friends support her throughout the battle is very touching. The haircut campaign is tear jerking.
There are a lot of scenes that makes people smile as well. It is great that they can make a comedy out of changing a tracheostomy tube. The big dinner at the end makes me happy too.
It is a beautiful film. The fact that Carly's real life friends plays her shows how courageous and loving Carly's friends are. It was a short life, but a life well lived and loved.

I watched this film not knowing it was a true story, what makes this film so powerful is everything that went into it. The story is of a girl with a rare form of cancer who fights it keeping a positive mind and body, even with a trachea tube she still sings, skates and fights to the end. The locations are Carley's home, her school, the hospital she was in and she is played by a close friend Sarah Fisher. There are no words to describe how delicately this film is executed, the director Sean Cisterna created a masterpiece, a truly wonderful execution of the life of an amazing girl. The entire cast should be proud of themselves, the family, the friends, her skating coach, it felt so real. I never knew Carley but at the end of this movie I now know I won't ever forget her. Some musicians look up to Bach or Beethoven, Boxers to Muhammed Ali, Climbers to Edmund Hilary. There's not enough words allowed in a review to say how much this movie and Carley moved me, other than I found the person to lookup to. My parents brought me into this world, Carley taught me how to live in it. Always Smile!
The movie made a weird choice to let the main character speak to the camera. This was a weird choices because it was not from te start like that. It was because of that hard for me to live with the character
You get the real feelgood feeling when watching this movie but also the harsh reality and the real story. It was made romantic in a good way and not to cheesy
Sean Cisterna, specialist in making us cry with biographies of sports girls who suffer from life's adversities, beautiful film, for those who like to get emotional, it hurts, but it's a great example of strength and determination, @carleyelleallison kisses and tears, and always smile, that's about it... And her best friend doing starring in the movie, just right...
