The Cinemaholic's 17 Best Terminal Illness Movies of All Time
"Terminal Illness has been more of a movie subject that has far been dramatized than the actual terminal illness there is. For example, what are the odds that two terminal cancer patients, who are also incidentally extremely likable, hang around and go on dinner dates before they fall for each other? Also, most of the terminal illness stories, in some way or the other, end up being tragic love stories, apart from being book-based or adapted screenplays. Also, no matter what one does, because the movie is about terminal illness, the patient dies anyway, despite all the prayers, preachings, and practices. Some of them definitely make us cry and empathize with their characters. A few of them, though, stay eternally with us, maybe for years altogether. Here's a list of top terminal illness movies that make us sad and fill us with empathy every time we watch them. Every single time." - thecinemaholic.com
