    Having a gf who recently lost her sister to cancer and obviously still dealing with grief, I find it incredible the amount of films and shows in recent years that incorporate cancer or terminal diseases to their narrative.

    It's pretty much impossible to watch anything without her being constantly reminded of it.
    Went for a very safe rom-com last night, both very happy with my feel-good choice until one of the main characters had to learn about her aunt's terminal diagnosis though it was completely unnecessary to the story overall.

    Million-Dollar Idea : an app that lets you sort through films based on topics you want to avoid.
