Even as they view the story as romanticizing the cancer experience, these patients value the glimpse it provided into their world. "The consensus is that - not surprisingly - the movie shies away from day-to-day ordeals in service of a love story. Enviable, but not entirely realistic - for in real life, parents worry and are protective in enforcing doctors' orders. She also noted that Hazel has a lot of independence.
This young patient noted that there are days when she doesn't have enough energy to walk from one room to another. Plus, she has a mouth on her."A particularly astute 11-year-old leukemia patient observed that in the movie Hazel isn't hospitalized often, and isn't undergoing extended treatments which limit a patient's ability to get up and go on social visits and jaunts. Woodley plays Hazel Grace Lancaster, a 16-year-old whose thyroid cancer forces her to wear tubes in her nose and drag around an oxygen tank. It’s a fresh, lively love story, brimming with humor and heartbreak, and lifted to the heights by Shailene Woodley, 22, a sublime actress with a résumé, from The Descendants to Divergent, that pretty much proves she’s incapable of making a false move on camera. Weber, of (500) Days of Summer, follows suit. And the film, directed by Josh Boone from a wittily nuanced script by Scott Neustadter and Michael H. Green made the wise choice to be funny in telling his sad story. It turns out The Fault in Our Stars isn’t total crap on the page or on the screen.
Prejudging is easy when it comes to The Fault in Our Stars, the movie version of John Green’s 2012 young-adult bestseller about a present-day Romeo and Juliet, both starcrossed by the Big C.
A crappy cancer movie from a crappy cancer book.
