Truman (2015)

Julián is an actor living in Madrid who has a terminal disease; he receives the visit of long-time friend Tomás who lives in Canada and came to spend a few days with him and try to persuade him to continue his treatment.

Mediocre drama about dying. The problem with contemporary films is that they try to mirror reality but have little else to justify one's sitting for two hours watching them. So, if you want a mirror to reality, watch it, but do it at your own risk. Don't blame me if you end up thinking it fails at mirroring reality, since I am not even sure that it succeeds at that. How could I be anyway? What is reality, if you don't mind my asking?
