Yesterday I attended an advance screening of 50/50, the new Seth Rogen film starring Joseph-Gordon Levitt as a 27-year old cancer patient.
It’s obvious from the marketing that this movie is taking a more lighthearted approach to this terrible disease.
(Actually, Seth Rogen’s involvement alone is a pretty big clue.)
I smuggled my bear Snuffles into the theatre with me. As you may recall, Snuffles was a huge help to me and my family when cancer changed our lives forever 20 years ago. And I valued his opinion of the movie’s success or failure in its quest to portray a cancer patient as he encounters the painful hurdles (and unexpected hilarities) on the road to wellness.
Snuffles posted his movie review below:
Shockingly, we are in agreement on all points. That’s some bear.
(We’ll work on the lighting next time.)
