What is Wit about? Toggle content

Wit is a poignant drama that follows the journey of Vivian Bearing, a renowned professor of English literature, as she navigates her diagnosis of terminal ovarian cancer. With her sharp wit and intellect, Vivian must confront her own mortality and the harsh realities of her treatment, all while trying to maintain her dignity and sense of self. Through a series of flashbacks, we see glimpses of Vivian's life before her diagnosis, including her childhood, her graduate school studies, and her career. As she struggles to come to terms with her illness, Vivian's voiceover narration provides a powerful and moving commentary on the human experience, culminating in a powerful recitation of John Donne's "Death Be Not Proud." With a talented cast, including Emma Thompson, Christopher Lloyd, and Audra McDonald, Wit is a powerful and thought-provoking film that explores the complexities of life, death, and the human condition.
