If I Stay
Why we love it ❤️
Mia is in a coma watching her own life from the outside, and the film gives her actual time to sit with the question: is there enough here worth coming back for? The relationship with Adam is the obvious anchor but the scenes with her parents and her best friend are what actually do the emotional work. Chloë Grace Moretz carries the whole thing. Bring something to cry into 😭
