I just saw a screening of the movie in Chicago last night. Loved the dual story telling. Director did a great job of combining these two people's lives into a story in which you can not stop watching; in hopes throughout, that they will find some answers. Both women and men should see this movie!!! Everyone knows someone who has had cancer and we all should be informed. A very empowering movie. Samantha Morton was perfect as Annie Parker. Never once did I see her as an actor. She just slipped into the part and made you route for her all the way through the film. Helen Hunt as Dr. King had just the right nuances. The rest of the supporting cast were well chosen and all felt real. I would highly recommend this film for both men and women.
