WHAT IT S ABOUT:
After being diagnosed with an aggressive cancer, Nicole Teague (Dakota Johnson) and her husband Matt (Casey Affleck) come to learn what true friendship is as their mutual best friend, Duane Faucheuz (Jason Segel), moves in with them to take the load off as they try to raise two young girls while Nicole fights for her life and Matt fights just to keep his head above water. Based on Matt s own autobiographical article,
The Friend.
It s interesting to compare and contrast Our Friend with another 2019 cancer drama (the pandemic inevitably led to the delayed release of
Our Friend, but both first premiered in 2019),

Our Friend to life, he had no idea just how much it was going to change his
own life.
The Friend, the gut wrenching film (available in theaters and on demand now) tells the true story of Matthew and his wife Nicole Teague throughout her battle with terminal cancer, and their friend Dane Faucheux who dropped everything and moved hundreds of miles to stay with them, helping them and their kids for years as her health declined. It s a poignant, tragic, but ultimately uplifting tale that doesn t shy away from the harsh realities of not only cancer but also life, and focuses not on the cancer itself but more on the importance of friendship.
