Hey. I'm having a huge assignment in the Norwegian subject... I have to read one book, and watch 2 movies and make an assignment out of that. So I've got one book and one movie.. The movie is " The Bucket List" and the book " Before I die" of Jenny Downham.
I need a movie about: Family, love, friendship, sickness/death. My assignment is to analyze the movies and book.
So if any of you dear TL'ers know a good movie which contain: family,love,friendship and sickess or death, I would be really pleased!
Thanks!

Rounders.
Finding Happiness.
Into the wildness.

I would say into the wildness has all the things you are looking for and it's unusual coming of the age story which always score well with teachers.

Hey you :-)
You might want to check Garden State(by Zach Braff). It contains pretty much all the themes you want to have in it. GL for your assignment.

Grave of the Fireflies The Pianist Requiem for a Dream Life is Beautiful Barefoot Gen Never Let Me Go Little Miss Sunshine City of God The Shawshank Redemption American Beauty Forrest Gump Eternal Sunshine on the Spotless Mind There Will Be Blood Magnolia Babel
I might add more later.

Oh if you dig into Japanese cinema there are plenty of good films.

Thanks for the GL's :D

Although I didn't like the movie much, the curious case of Benjamin Button comes to mind when I read your request.
|
The Pianist is a really good movie for a study
|
7 pounds is also a really good movie

it has family; his mother dies to cancer; friendship and lose and love with genny and a bunch of other things you could throw in too if you wanted to expand your ideas and tie it all together to a central theme

I would recomend against it. I tried watching it and already got bored and turned it of during the first 15 min. A few alternatives are as mentioned
american beauty (still one of my favourite movies) Forrest gump (Don't like it that much myself)

Family, love, friendship, sickness/death.
For all these categories, my favorite movie of all time - The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.
+ Show Spoiler + Requiem for a dream was horrible, I really don't understand how people like that movie.

Analyze in what way?? Like, what are you trying to tie between the three??
