When Alice recorded the video instructing herself to say goodbye, tears flowed quietly. In front of the camera, she was still a beautiful and smart woman. Facing the future Alice who would eventually take away her body, she passed her fear, care and courage to the...

Not just ignorant, Alzheimer's is not only a noun but also an adjective. It is you who can truly experience the irresistible degeneration of brain function and there is nothing you can do. It is you who cannot control your familiar body organs and face the shock of your mind after breaking with your past life, which is precarious and precarious. The film downplays all contradictions and conflicts except Alice, so it lacks ups and downs, or the author intentionally irons out these waves and...

It's really peaceful, plus the Alzheimer's disease has been used a lot in recent years, it's not new. I thought Moore would perform a very hard bombing acting. In the end, it's normal performance, but it feels a little less forceful and tears are low. I didn't want to cry, but I saw the same person with Alzheimer's disease. Hey, the old man's tears still lacked a little sense of substitution. I really liked that...

The story is surprisingly simple, a struggle with no victory to speak of, and reminds me of "Tug of War with Eternity" from the corner of my eye. The film relies on internal tension to build its attraction, and the performance is very particular and restrained. However, the intellectual calm was more rational, which made the last impression cast a cold feeling. Without a thorough touch, the depth of the audience's thinking and experience cannot be deepened, and I think this is a...

[last lines]
Lydia Howland: [reading to her mother, but mostly from memory] "Night flight to San Francisco chase the moon across America. God, it's been years since I was on a plane. When we hit 35,000 feet, we'll have reached the tropopause, the great elt of calm air. As close to the ozone as I'll get, I - I dreamed we were there. The plane leapt the tropopause, the safe air, and attained the outer rim, the ozone, which was ragged and torn, patches of it threadbare as old cheesecloth, and that was... frightening."
Lydia Howland: "But I saw something only I could see because of my astonishing ability to see such things. Souls were rising, from the earth far below, souls of the dead, of people who's perished from famine, from war, from the plague... And they floated up, like skydivers in reverse, limbs all akimbo, wheeling, spinning. And the souls of these departed joined hands, clasped ankles and formed a web, a great net of souls. And the souls were three-atom oxygen molecules of the stuff of ozone and the outer rim absorbed them, and was repaired. Because nothing is lost forever. In this world, there a kind of painful progress. A longing for what we've left behind, and dreaming ahead. At least I think that's so."
Lydia Howland: [moving over alongside her mother] Hey. Did you like that. What I jest read, did you like it?
Dr. Alice Howland: [barely grunting]
Lydia Howland: And what... What was it about?
Dr. Alice Howland: Love. Yeah, love.
Lydia Howland: Yeah, it was about love.

[bursts into terrified sobbing]
