The Big Sick

[madrobins]

Before this small, lovely film disappears, go see it. It's funny, it's well acted, it's based (as they say) on a true story. No big special effects: just a very funny stand-up comedian who happens to be Pakistani, who falls in love with an American girl. Complications ensue: cultural, familial, medical. It's lovely.

I would love to, but have been warned away due to the triggery effects that cancer has on me. And now, apparently, break-ups.

Then it's probably not for you. There are things that would delight you, but they are not worth the triggering (it's a movie you should come out of feeling happy about).

Should mention: it's not cancer. And there's an HEA.
