What would you do...if you were told that you had 2 months to live, got dumped and lost your job...all in the same day?
Interesting premise - lots of possibilities.
It starts off well - Burrows does rise to the occasion...and then, it falls apart.
The last 15 minutes are a ridiculous demonstration of a writer running out of inspiration - taking the easy way out.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
The transformation of a woman after she is diagnosed with a terminal illness, fired from her thankless job and abandoned by her boyfriend. Given two months to live, she blows her savings and maxes out her credit cards to pursue her dreams, which include romance and learning to play the electric guitar.
