This film tells the proposition of "death" from the perspective of a rather literary but lonely boy who is in American high school (about 18 or 19 years old). Since the beginning, we have always said that we should learn to forget and start a new life when dealing with disease and death. The film interprets this topic from another perspective. With the help of the surrounding people and the heroine, he sees death from disdain to death. It is possible to know this person from another aspect. Death is not forgetting, but new knowledge. . In Greg's mind, he thinks that he is out of tune with his surroundings, dividing his high school classmates into "categories", and he is nothing. Such "self-righteousness" also isolates him. Fortunately, he has Earl. Greg calls him a partner and not a friend, because he has no friends. Both of them like classic movies, and they are constantly trying to shoot and create their own movies, but Greg thinks these are still "bad movies", just for entertainment. Mom convinced him to visit Reachel, Greg told her honestly that he had come to be friends with her mother to deal with her, and that he had yet to find sympathy among friends. "This was originally a romantic and affectionate love story, but..." Every time I think about whether they will live happily together, Reachel should live a healthy life. Greg poured cold water over it, saying it wasn't like that. The phrase "friendship with a known ending..." is also used throughout the film, but Greg didn't expect that because of the day-to-day interaction, this situation would change. Reachel is willing to listen to his bad jokes and can respond. He thinks that the bad movie Reachel has watched and praised it well. He and Earl are actually good friends. University Reachel helped him face himself. While Greg was willing to open his heart, Reachel decided to give up treatment. I think a young girl still can't accept painful chemical treatment and can't bring about improvement in her condition, only ugly and weak (there is a sermon in the film). After some struggle, Greg showed Reachel the movie he made for her, and it was a colorful scene, just as he saw Reachel in his eyes. Fairy tales don't have a happy ending, and Reachel still left. After the film, she didn't leave with regrets. In the last stage of her life, she had friends, love and company. There are not many innovations in the storyline, and there are also some tears, but the proposition of telling love and death from the perspective of youth is novel. Because this age is easy to accept new things, but also easy to shape values. Grand propositions and sense of responsibility are not suitable for them, and the changes brought about by living together are natural. Reminds me of another film "The Fault in the Nebula" I watched before, not necessarily many people have seen the film but the episode "Boom" I must have heard a lot of "Clap", and the actors who want to come to this film are also very popular young actors now. The genre of the film is similar, the heroine is also seriously ill, and the hero was an athlete who had his left leg amputated due to an accident. After the two met, they also changed each other, their cognition of the world, their views on life and death, and their way of dealing with diseases. Both films are presented in dialogues and fragments, the latter has more, and the former has a more full and interesting storyline. Is death really the end of life? There is no established answer to this philosophical proposition, and some explanations may be obtained from the interpretation of these films. Greg went into her room after Reachel left, and saw her drawing of a squirrel on the tree wallpaper, and her model in his college directory (it was Earl and her). Maybe Greg will meet new friends and love when he starts college, but Earl and Reachel are irreplaceable, they both teach Greg to know himself, not to pretend to be out of everything, not to be so humble.
