Love, Danielle

Many people suffer in silence when they have a major health decision to make. Knowing that others have made the decision and come through successfully is an important lesson of this film.

The actors allow you to journey with them in a way that makes you feel that they are just like yourself and your friends.

Families are alike in many ways and you will see yours and those of your friends on the screen as two close sisters share their individual journeys. Laugh, cry, and cheer with them as they support and love each other. You will be left informed, hopeful, and entertained when you view this gem of a movie.

Knowing the content in advance, I was pleasantly surprised to find the delightful mix of humor and meaning. This is an important topic that needs to be seen and presented in an inviting and digestible format. I particularly loved the lead actress. She was both honest and entertaining. Her husband's role was beautifully portrayed with full support for his wife and confusion about how to do it! Great acting by familiar and new actors that genuinely nail their characters. Thank you for portraying the sister relationship in a "real" and heartfelt way.

Please watch this movie; it will touch your heart and mind.

This is such an incredibly well written film about a tough topic that deserves more air time! It's perfectly cast to balance humor with insight, education and awareness. It's a raw perspective of Devin's own personal journey that will keep you riveted and wanting to know more. The relationship between the two sisters is so endearing, inspirational and real. Whether you're a cancer survivor, a previvor or family/friend of one, this movie is a must-see! It's not just about cancer, but also about owning our own healthcare journey and the choices and consequences many women face and endure silently.

What is the experience of a person who is advocating for her own health so that she can reduce her risk of cancer? Love, Danielle takes us on that rollercoaster, the good, bad and ugly of advocating for your own life. Throw in some levity with a messed up family dynamic, and you have a story that runs us on a full ride of diagnosis, treatment and finally healing. It is a beautifully told story that lets the audience walk away with knowledge that can help save so many peoples lives.

Devin Sidell masterfully moves with every scene partner she has on the screen. She carries this mammoth of a story on her back and carries us with her through every conflict and eventually joy. Most notably her relationship with Jamie King is joyful to watch. King plays the sister with cancer and at no point do you feel she is milking the sadness of the experience. She brings humor and the light of someone who is truly fighting to live.

Love, Danielle is an educational film that delves into the emotionally charged world of genetic testing and its profound impact on individuals and families. The movie follows Danielle, a woman faced with the difficult decision of undergoing genetic testing after discovering a family history of cancer. The film masterfully captures her internal struggles, from confronting her own fears to understanding the potential consequences for her loved ones.

What sets Love, Danielle apart is its honest portrayal of the complex emotions that accompany genetic testing-fear, hope, and the search for clarity in an uncertain world. The film doesn't shy away from difficult conversations about hereditary risk and the impact it can have on life choices, making it both deeply relatable and informative. It also highlights the importance of genetic counseling and support, offering a message of empowerment for those facing similar decisions.
