The comic book became darker, it turned away from the quirky but loved offspring of the three or four picture strip that embedded themselves in the newspapers of the thirties and forties and in turn gave itself the new self-determined title of the Graphic Novel, and to the rejoice of the reader who immersed themselves into the world of D.C., Marvel and other purveyors of tales of suspense and disbelief, that they were no longer to be seen as people to be scorned or mocked, that in that name change, a commanding of respect was delivered.

Nobody can snap a finger and make you better; nobody can get inside your head and see the grief that assists the pain that the body feels.  When every movement feels like torture, even the briefest glimpse of something bright and hopeful only serves to remind what was lost. It is almost the perfect summing up for Jennifer Aniston’s latest film, Cake.
