But I started crying about ten minutes into it.

Well, to wrap it up, so I've never cried that much in a movie.

I mean, it's just, it's about the kid with cancer, for God's sakes, and then she gets a boyfriend, and he's got cancer.

I just couldn't take it.

Right.

It was so relentless, and the music.

Eventually everyone, and then it was like Hamlet.

Everyone, and it was, I couldn't, I really couldn't catch my breath during the movie.

And my friend Ben Mankiewicz reviewed it on Apple movies, and he made the point that the music is really literal, so the songs are like...

She's 12.

She has cancer.

Goodbye.

So the whole thing was just too much.

And the next day when I woke up, my body couldn't differentiate whether that had happened to me or to the actors.

I felt like I'd been to a funeral.

If you have something to say to Chaffee.

Yeah, I remember seeing Dead Man Walking, and I don't know why, but for some reason I felt like I needed bereavement counseling.

I was so upset that Sean Penn had never had shrimp until his last meal.

It was in my eyes.

Yeah, but just physiologically, my face was so puffy from crying and my eyes hurt.
