by actor amy seimetz,
it stars kate lyn sheil as amy,
a party girl who becomes convinced
that she's going to die tomorrow.
her friend jane thinks that
she's imagining things,
but then jane suddenly becomes
convinced that she too
will die tomorrow.
but how do you know?
i just know.
but amy decides to go dune—buggy
riding in herfinal hours,
as you do, jane barrels
into her brother's house wailing
about her impending demise,
much to the annoyance
of her sarcastic sister—in—law who's
celebrating her birthday.
i just thought for a second that
when the lights went
out that that was it.
this bitterly funny scene alone
makes the film well worth the watch,
but she dies tomorrow has more
to offer than hollow laughs.
it's an uneasy reflection on the
nature of anxiety and paranoia.
hey, it's amy.
i won't be around tomorrow.
or any date after that,
but feel free to leave a message.
obviously, this was made
before the pandemic,
but it feels eerily relevant.
