To Write Love on Her Arms (2012)

To Write Love on Her Arms: Directed by Nathan Frankowski. With Kat Dennings, Chad Michael Murray, Rupert Friend, Juliana Harkavy. A drama centered around Renee Yohe and her battle with drugs, depression, and other life issues that ultimately leads to the founding of charity group To Write Love on Her Arms.

“This film tells the story of a young woman who has mood and addiction problems. She is helped by friends to stay clean, and subsequently they founded an organisation to help other young people.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eu0026quot;To Write Love on Her Armsu0026quot; is not an easy film to watch or comment on, because it is a personu0026#39;s intensely personal journey. However, viewing it as a film, I found the plot rather difficult to understand. I donu0026#39;t understand why Renee is depressed and is on drugs to start with, leaving me confused for the rest of the film. Renee does not seem to have the big heart described in the plot summary immediately after her discharge from the detox centre. It was someone else who founded the charity organisation, and Renee is not even ready to deal with her own problems – let alone other peopleu0026#39;s problems. So I was left feeling muddled and cheated throughout the film.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOf course I have to say that it is great that Renee her friends are still running the charity organisation to help others, which shows that they are altruistic and compassionate. I just wish there is more of that portrayed in the film.”
