Even if love is the panacea, there are times when the heart is powerless.
Are you having a good time now? Whether you have caring relatives, whether you enjoy the sweet tacit understanding of lovers; or sweating on the court with three or two close friends; or holding a carefree comfort and so on.
We have all been taught more or less that these precious lives need to be cherished. But have you ever thought that a complete body is also an object that we should cherish, as well as the right to choose life or death. Possession and loss are two sides of the same coin. The more common and less caring things, the more silently they disappear.
Today's film is about love, about life and death, and more about choices.
The male protagonist Will, with a slender figure and a handsome face, loves extreme sports and has a thriving career. The girlfriend is tall and beautiful, and her family is quite decent and wealthy. This is the time when life is proud, a heavy rain, a whistling, and an accident come unexpectedly. From then on, he has to face himself who has been paralyzed all his life. (Ok, I admit it's still handsome)
This kind of cruelty and blow can not be covered up by a few understatements, nor can it be easily erased by a few words of comfort and encouragement. From then on, it is not easy to get used to living without legs and to face the inability to take care of yourself when you wake up every day.
Physiological defects are of course helpless, but the real despair lies in the fact that as a human being, it has lost the basic conditions for pursuit, and it has also cut off all good possibilities. Maybe, after a period of time, he will gradually adapt to the world in the wheelchair, and he will cry and laugh, but the original self has long since disappeared. Outside the window is still as bright as ever, and the world is still as vast and boundless, but to him it is already two worlds.
The heroine of this film is Emilia Clarke, who plays the "Dragon Mother" in "Game of Thrones". Employed by her mother, she applied to be his nurse. Unlike ordinary working women, she is cheerful and lively, even a little silly. Her purely trivial experience brought a little turbulence and light to his stagnant life.
Perhaps, there is no difference between graceful and decent luxury and the maintenance of every needle and thread, but the details of life are different. Eventually you will get bored and overwhelmed. The meticulous care and long-term careful companionship will inevitably give birth to some inexplicable feelings. Maybe it's love, or maybe it's something more akin to family.
She ended up being his mainstay, the only motivation for his survival. Even after six months, he still chose to execute himself. Nothing has changed, even the panacea of love is powerless at this time.
That's the truth of this movie. Nothing was deliberately ignited, and nothing was saved in the name of love. Everything should be like this. Although the power of love is great, it is ultimately limited.
Everyone has the right to choose, and there is no paradigm in life. You can climb up, you can roll down, it's all right. The scenery on the top of the mountain is not necessarily, it must be more beautiful than the bottom of the mountain.
May everyone around you respect your right to "fall".
