Griffin & Phoenix

This love story starts on a low note, when Griffin (Dermot Mulroney) learns that cancerous lesions in his chest give him a life expectancy of less than two years. He falls in love with academic advisor Phoenix (Amanda Peet), and the pair decide to 'live life to the fullest' by fulfilling all of Griffin's childhood fantasies, from painting water towers to sneaking into movies to hopping freight trains. But Phoenix has a secret of her own that threatens to damper the joy of their time together.
