And in the end, the movie does promote positive messages about life, friendship, and parent-teen communication.
There's not much in the way of language ("wanker" is about the worst of it) or sex (Hope has a boyfriend, but they only exchange a couple of hugs and one brief kiss on the cheek), but there are a couple of potentially disturbing scenes of teens in the hospital and of popular girls picking on and pushing students. That premise might seem off-putting, especially to viewers who've lived with or lost someone to cancer, but Hope definitely comes to terms with the consequences of her deceit and learns how lucky she is to be able to plan for a future she never thought she'd have.
But living without an "expiration date" wasn't in Hope's plans, so she pretends to still be sick to maintain the identity - and special considerations - she's become used to. Parents need to know that Hope Springs Eternal is a dramedy about a teenager named Hope (Mia Rose Frampton) who's been living with terminal cancer for years and then discovers she's miraculously in remission.
