What I liked

The exercise and camera story lines worked well for change of scenes and moods. Both actresses played their roles convincingly, speaking so that the audience could digest and process the dialog and emotions. I appreciated their facial expressions and enunciation. Very believable.

What I didn't like

Perhaps Tiffany might have explored more about her friend’s cancer situation—what’s known? An update from a doctor visit that creates enough of a dialogue to give optimism (or not) ….more than just the throwing up. Perhaps discussing what the patient is thinking and feeling about her mortality. Friends show up, they don’t need to have the fixes or answers.

However, I am not really qualified to suggest what to cut out, given the time constraints :)

My overall impression

Relevant tale that explores the relationship of two longtime friends when one encounters a setback (cancer). After first declaring total support, the character of Tiffany wrestles with her conflicting emotions of loyalty and escape. Thought-provoking.
