Stars: Kevin Kline, Kristin Scott Thomas, Hayden Christensen, Jena Malone
Genre: Drama
Rating: R
Runtime: 125 minutes

George:
You're not still taking any, are you?

Sam:

George:
I'm having a problem with cancer.

Sam:
I don't know what that means. What kind of problem?

George:
The kind where there isn't any answer.

Sam:
I still don't know what it means.

George:
Sam I wanted us to... You know, spend a few months together. Here. Sometimes things happen for a reason. Something bad to force something good.

Sam:
So you're dying. And you told mom today. F*** you, ok f*** you. You knew you were dying from the start?

George:
We're all dying from the start. I just got pushed to the head of the line.

George:

George:
No, Sam I wasn't trying to get you to like me. I was trying to get you to love me.

Sam:
Well, congratulations... Because you f***ing pulled it off.
