Review of White Lie

White Lie (I) (2019)
6/10
The movie was very aggravating to watch

The whole time, I just wanted to tell her that this is an impossible lie to tell. That doctor at the end will charge you more than you've raised. Come clean, then just move to a new city and try to make new friends. Hopefully no traces left on the internet.

Other thing is that this movie oddly tries to be as politically correct as possible in a film that has no need to. I did the math. Do you know what percent of people are homosexual? What percent of doctors are black in Canada? What percent of lawyers black in Canada? The answer respectively is 4%, 1%, and 2%. The odds of this actually occurring in real life. 0.0008% or more directly 1 in 125,000 that scene of a couple and a doctor and a lawyer unfold this way. This is what bothers people about this political correctness: it paints something that does not match up with reality.

Overall, I want to know the desire to do this? If it was to raise money? Why not just graduate college and get a job that will maybe raise the same amount. I understand how serious mental illness is, I just think even the mentally ill go for something that's worth it. This just didn't seem worth it.
