Description: Inspired by a true story: Adam Lerner has a pretty great life — with a talented, sexy artist girlfriend and a cool job with NPR, the 27-year old seems to have it all. But when Adam discovers he has a rare and possibly fatal form of cancer, his entire life turns to chaos.
EN 5 Second Review: Who would have thought that a comedy about cancer could be this hilarious as well as heartfelt. One of our favorite movies this year. The fact that it is based in the screenwriters lives makes it even more so.
