There are some films that you can tell from the first 30 seconds of a trailer that you’re going to need to bring a box of tissues with you when you watch it. “All My Life” is most definitely that type of feature.
As seen in the trailer for “All My Life,” the film has all the hallmarks of a tear-jerking film. There are the handsome lead actors that fall madly in love and have the sweetest meet-cute and engagement situations you could imagine. Then tragedy strikes and there’s a sudden, terminal illness that threatens their happiness. Add in the fact that this is all based on a true story and there’s even a cute dog, and you better believe that the waterworks will flow during the run-time of this film.

The film stars Jessica Rothe, Harry Shum Jr, Kyle Allen, Chrissie Fit, Jay Pharoah, Marielle Scott, and Keala Settle. “All My Life” is directed by Marc Meyers, who is probably best known for his recent feature “My Friend Dahmer,” which is about as far away from the tone of this film as possible but still worth a watch.
“All My Life” is set to arrive in theaters on December 4. You can watch the trailer below.
Here’s the synopsis:
