50 / 50 (2011 Jonathan Levine)

Joseph Gordon Levitt (good), Seth Rogan, Anna Kendrick (really good), Anjelica Huston, Bryce Dallas Howard, Matt Frewer & Philip Baker Hall (the other patients).

Written by Will Reiser. Levine also made The Wackness.
Music Michael Giacchino. Ph. Terry Stacey.

Sweet, not too Hollywoody, a rather serious film about a young man who finds he's seriously ill, with the survival odds of the title. An independent production of a true story.

Frewer's intimate moments with wife, Joseph realising Seth has been reading up on illness, are cool moments. How does it end? Um. There's an operation.
