Woody Harrelson plays a pro-life protester in this new right to die, coming-of-age film
ABCSuncoast is a story that's very close to director/writer Laura Chinn's heart. Terri Schiavo dies in Florida following a long legal battle Photo shows Devastated: Shiavo's parents with Reverend Jesse Jackson Terri Schiavo, the severely brain damaged woman at the centre of a right-to-die controversy in the US, has died in a Florida hospice almost two weeks after her feeding tube was cut off. But it's all background noise for Doris, whose purpose at Suncoast hospice is to keep her brother Max company and be a punching bag for her grief-crazy mum, Kristine. A tricky mother/daughter relationship Doris is suffering under a textbook case of parentification, her childhood entirely consumed by her brother's care and her mother's inability to balance that care with her healthy daughter. Kristine's treatment of Doris borders on cartoonishly cruel: she berates and criticises her daughter while also saying creepy things like: "The handsome ones never stay, like your brother" in reaction to Doris telling her that Brad Pitt left Jennifer Aniston.
