Tuesday is a 15-year-old girl with a terminal illness who is at death's door. Meanwhile, her grieving mother attempts to bargain with Death. I went into this knowing nothing and was absolutely blown away by it. This is just a very special film, full of really interesting ideas. Easily one of Julia Louis-Dreyfus's best roles, and the CGI in this film is surprisingly well-implemented (anything less would have made it seem cheesy). It's a fantasy parable that's both funny and sad, but the tonal shifts work within the difficult thematic issues, and I found myself fighting back tears until the very end.
