If you loved The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, try Nights in Rodanthe

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by George C. Wolfe, and they both carry the bittersweet, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Nights in Rodanthe is

Here's a film about second chances, set against the backdrop of a windswept coastline. A woman tending an inn for a friend meets a troubled surgeon. The two find solace, and perhaps something more, as a storm rages outside. It’s a Nicholas Sparks joint, so you know what you're getting.
