'My life without me' is a beautiful and dramatic film and I am very surprised how few people heard about this movie. I liked Sarah Polley's acting,and was nice to see Maria de Medeiros again.
Ann is a young mother,who had her first daughter when she was 17 years old,with the boyfriend(Don) she had her first kiss and her first sexual experiences. In her early 20's,she has two kids(Patsy and Penny) a low payment job, and lives in a small trailer in her mother's garden with her boyfriend Don and the two girls. One day, she decides to go to the hospital to see why she is staying sick all the time, and she discovers that she has uterine cancer and will only live for more two months. Ann decides,then, to do a list of 10 things she needs to do before she dies:
Ann: THINGS TO DO BEFORE I DIE. Ann: 1. Tell my daughters I love them several times.
Ann: 2. Find Don a new wife who the girls like.
Ann: 3. Record birthday messages for the girls for every year until they're 18.
Ann: 4. Go to Whalebay Beach together and have a big picnic. Ann: 5. Smoke and drink as much as I want.
Ann: 6. Say what I'm thinking.
Ann: 7. Make love with other men to see what it's like.
Ann: 8. Make someone fall in love with me.
Ann: 9. Go and see Dad in Jail.
Ann: 10. Get false nails. And do something with my hair.
Doing all the things in secret,without her daughters and boyfriend knows, Ann will make the last moments of her life special for her and the other people in her life.
