   "Veronika Decides to Die"

       This is the movie SMG made a year or so ago; don't think it ever made it   
   to the big screen, but I could be wrong. I watched it on Netflix.   
      
           The gist of the story is that  Veronika (spelled with a 'k' because   
   her parents are Russian) I unhappy with her life, and unhappy about her   
   potential future as se perceives it happening. So she take a half dozen   
   different kinds of pills in varying amounts and washes them down with   
   whiskey.   
      
           Someone finds her, calls 911, and when she wakes up she is in an   
   involuntary rehab facility/asylum that her parents have paid for. She is   
   told that she had a heart attack while unconscious and it caused a large   
   aneurism that could burst any day.  She tries again to kill herself with   
   pills but is stopped.   
      
           She meets a guy in there who was committed because he was   
   responsible for an auto accident that killed his girlfriend years ago. They   
   hook up and then escape so Veronika can spend her last days free, doing and   
   seeing things she hadn't before.   
      
   and now for those who don't want to know the ending .......

   It turns out there is nothing wrong with her heart. The doctor just wanted   
   her to enjoy those 'last few days', and will continue to if she thinks the   
   end may come at any time.   
      
           It wasn't a bad movie. It moved kind of slow at times, but that is   
   the kind of movie it was.  Sarah looked a lot like she did in the final   
   season of Buffy even though the movie was made in 2009, and Buffy ended in   
   2003.
