To truly be happy, you need to shed a few tears..

Rating: 10/10 (29 June 2017)

While watching this movie, I got reminded of Sadness from Inside Out - to really experience joy, one also needs to go through some emotional troughs.
And boy I was feeling a wave of happiness running through my body, with every passing frame of this movie.
And it was Aristotelian happiness: eudaimonia!
The movie is based on a book of same title - it's a tale of two teenagers, both battling through cancer and how courageously they decide to put themselves out there - vulnerable to love, and become wiser and stronger through their bond.
A charming and humorous narrative, with big jolts of reality. And it makes you cry. I don't remember if I've ever cried so much in any movie.
The characters are earnest and the soundtrack amplifies all emotions very eloquently. But it also makes one feel really blessed.
One of the best movies I've ever seen.
