Here Awhile

When I went to watch this film, I truly didn't know what to expect. This movie completely took me by surprise and beyond just making me cry, it made me feel deeply for Anna and all the people stuck in her position and the families involved. I was thinking about this film for a long time afterward. Stunning performance by Anna Camp, who I only really associated with bright comedy before watching this. Joe Lo Truglio's character Gary will make you feel in ways you don't expect and Steven Strait's vulnerability as Anna's brother Michael is noteworthy. This film really sheds light on how death with dignity is an important decision for some people, and it really should be an available option in more places.

But she , the dying caracter, is far too fresh and healthy to make a big lashing breakout of tears from my standpoint. also its a bit superfiscial at moments, even though i suppose its meant to cheer up the audience, it doesnt work that way in real life. reminiscence is a great part of the plot, and in those cases with death with dignity, the dying has to be sound and healthy mentally so it might bring forward a massive amount of clear memories that can make a good basis of making the bold desiscion to die.

but still its a good film, with love ad charm from many angles, the plot becomes a bit hurried because its such a vast thing, but its done quite well. it has a wellknitted score amlyfying the emotional waves throughout the whole seanse. technically there are no flaws to mention.

its an important subject to display the limelight on, death with dignity must be a great solution if there are no chance to change destiny, and the hope for miracles are pretty loonitisious then the grumpy old man wouldve done the same, why not beat death with death, wouldnt that be a little bit of heaven??? recommended

Well you have your obligatory woke: every single relationship is same sex or interracial because we know that's how the real world is (sarcasm). As far as the movie itself, it is really low budget, with not much going on. The acting isn't great. I mean if absolutely nothing else is on, it won't kill you to watch it.

Its when you don't have to think, argue or analyse them.

Its when you don't think in actors, acting, reflection etc.

Its like a book you can indulge in.

A good story, book or film, should invite you to become part of it. It shouldn't make you think about actors you recognize from other films. A film fails if an actor or actress makes you think about another film. And although it's a personal thing and therefore for everyone different, its how you feel the story and are able to become part of it. As a listener, viewer and yeah, for some even identifying yourself with characters.

So don't get upset by reviewers, professional or not, but just enjoy this film as a book. The kind of which you actually don't want to read the last page. Only because the story will be over and done with.

That should explain my 10/10.. 🙂

Here Awhile is a beautiful film about subject matter that is incredibly important. Anna Camp's performance is stunning and I really felt like I was on the journey with her every step of the way. This is a movie that will definitely open your heart and encourage important conversations with loved ones. Thank you to the filmmakers for taking such love and care with a difficult subject, and sharing this very raw look at real life in a way that is tender, purposeful, and doesn't shy away from asking hard questions of not only the characters in the movie, but also the viewer.
