Decoding Annie Parker
(2013)
Directed by Steven
Bernstein this film stars Samantha Morton, Helen Hunt and Aaron Paul.
A woman battles against breast cancer, which has a long history in
her family, while scientists struggle to find a genetic link between
some types of breast cancer.
Trying to tell two
parallel stories in a 90 minute film means that the scientific side
of this film ends up really short changed and never gets the times
and detail it needs. The main story of Annie Parker and her personal
struggle with cancer is well done but not necessarily something you
have not seen before on film. What is impressive about the film is
the large supporting cast that has a lot of familiar faces in minor
roles.
3/5
