Tammy's always dying is a film, directed by Amy Jo Johnson, and written by Joanne Sarazen, released in 2019.[1]

The titular Tammy, an alcoholic mother, recently diagnosed with cancer, is played by Felicity Huffman, in her last role prior to serving her sentence for bribing her daughter's way into University.[2]

The film is Johnson's second direction of a feature film. Sarazen had written two feature films prior to this one.

In its review Film Threat blamed Sarazen for writing a film that fell short of greatness because the characters were too real, and too unlikeable.[1]
