[A] grimly mannered and ersatz film. Go to Full Review

3.5/5
Though this is essentially about the end of someone's life, there is hope here. It is not all tears and heartbreak (though there is some of that as well). Go to Full Review

5/10
I'm a total cinematic masochist... but 90 or so minutes of emotional hammering and being reminded of our fragility and imminent demise is a bit much. Go to Full Review

May 31, 2021 Speechless very gripping move. Get out the tissues See more les n @Vegas628 Aug 19, 2020 I don't know which caused more nausea, the bad dialogue or the cancer medication she was supposedly on. I'm sure women will love this. See more Jul 13, 2020 Here Awhile is a compelling, engaging and thought-provoking movie about a young woman, Anna, who is dying from cancer. She moves to Oregon in order to access its Death with Dignity Act. The acting by Anna Camp and the entire cast is superb. The story is beautifully written and manages to strike the ideal balance between serious and levity. It also does an excellent job capturing the reality that one can both desperately want to live and be able to accept the inevitability of their death. While the focus is on dying on one's own terms, the movie also touches upon several other issues including sexual identity, aspergers, mental health, and more. While the movie is about death, what it really demonstrates is key themes around love, acceptance, and compassion. See more Jun 17, 2020 It was a great look into the humanity of this situation. I recommend it See more Jun 10, 2020 Really accessible film about what this woman decided to do when she got cancer. I learned a lot about End of Life Act/Death with Dignity. Great performances and direction, charming and human. See more Read all reviews
