Jennifer Aniston's Second Coming
24 June 2015
Claire (Jennifer Aniston) becomes fascinated by the suicide of a woman in her chronic pain support group while grappling with her own, very raw personal tragedy.

This film has an interesting way of looking at opiate addiction. It basically ignores it, making it neither a good or bad thing. Just part of the world of chronic pain. Instead we get a strange story where a woman stalks (and is stalked by) a suicide victim. So weird! Is Orange County full of white supremacists? I had never heard that before, but after a quick Google search it apparently has that reputation. I knew the reputation of the rich white people, but never thought of it in any racist sense... hmm...
