LIFE OR SOMETHING LIKE IT

What would you do if you thought you only had one week left to live? Would you radically change what was left of your life? Re-evaluate your values and priorities? Those are the last questions in the world that Lanie Kerrigan (Angelina Jolie) thought she'd ever have to face. A feature reporter at a Seattle television station, Lanie thinks her life is perfect. Perfect job. Perfect apartment. Perfect wardrobe. Perfect boyfriend. But her "perfect" world starts unraveling after a homeless street seer (Tony Shalhoub) tells Lanie that she leads a meaningless existence, and will die the following week. When the savant's other predictions come true, Lanie begins to re-examine her life and priorities, all in a whirlwind one-week period. As if things weren't crazy enough for Lanie, romantic sparks fly as she reluctantly teams with a cameraman (Edward Burns) with whom she has long been at odds. What's the most important thing in life? Is it love or is it your career? Is it work or is it your family? Lanie Kerrigan must ponder these questions and decide whether she is living life... or something like it.
