Film Review: Rising Above Cancer in the Teen Dream ‘Hope Springs Eternal’
Submitted by PatrickMcD on August 18, 2018 - 1:20pmCHICAGO – The topic of cancer is rarely heroic, and as we know mostly concludes tragically. But the new teen comedy “Hope Springs Eternal” turns the Big C on its ear, and features up-and-coming young actor Mia Rose Frampton to take it on. The film is light and breezy, with nods to John Hughes, absurdist teen indoctrinations and the celebration of music in life.
