Review of Now Is Good (2012) by Bruno V — 19 Aug 2013

Now Is Good is a compelling drama that raises those questions about how you would plan your remaining days when all you can do is wait for the final curtain. Dakota Fanning is an amazing young actress who can light up the room and yet bring tears to your eyes on a story that moves and inspires.

It is many times depressing but also full of life, where the main characters depict so well how everyone around the patient suffers from different angles, ironically making the terminally ill seem stronger than everybody else.

This is British story-telling at its best, a knack we've lost in recent years as American and European films have shone in that department.
