It's similar to "Before I Met You", but "One Breath, One Breath" is even more touching because this film is adapted by the protagonist's son based on his father's real experience. This brings the film to life. The movie portrays the love between Diana and Robin in a very moving way.
I believe in love, and its power enough to allow a pampered woman to care for her paralyzed husband without complaint, and to fulfill all his seemingly "absurd" dreams without complaint. Robin's success is inseparable from Diana's unconditional support. Because if it is an ordinary woman, if the doctor tells her that her husband will live for up to two weeks without leaving the hospital, then she will definitely not agree to her husband's wish to "escape" the hospital, and even if he is discharged, he will be "imprisoned" "At home, with 24-hour care, he is not allowed to go out, let alone travel. Robin is lucky, he has a group of lovely and warm friends, they make Robin like a "normal" to chat with friends, party, cheer, "run"... because he is a lucky person so his Stories can be the subject of movies for the less fortunate.
That segment of the speech, Robin said, thank my wife, I live for her, with her, for her. In the end, Robin chose euthanasia and chose to end his own life. Diana held his hand and said, thank you for living for me. "To live is to see you, and to see you is to live better." In the early days of his illness, Robin used his lips to say "let me die." in order not to disturb his wife, but in his wife's decisive attitude, he realized that leaving at this time is actually the greatest harm to the person he loves, and it is selfish. He wants to live, to accompany her lover, even if he can't hug her, he has to reserve a breath for her. He wants to witness the growth of the child.
At the end of the movie, Diana agrees with her husband's decision with reluctance to end her life. Robin's words, it's time to let go. Let her understand that living is already an unbearable burden for Robin. Rather than letting him drown in a pool of his own blood, it is better to let him go and let him free. She can't be selfish anymore.
Live because I love you; I agree with you to leave because I love you. The days with each other are the happiest memories of my life. Thank you my love.
Movies can always use the most beautiful words to tell the warmth. In reality, this kind of love is too difficult. Caring for a patient who is in bed and unable to take care of himself eventually wears out one's patience. Even if you don't give up, you have no regrets, but there will always be times when your emotions collapse, but love is to pick up the messy dirty clothes on the ground after the collapse and lose your temper, wipe your tears, wash it, dry it, and then stack up.
In the end, I don't think I will see euthanasia legalized in my country in my lifetime. I know there are so many difficult questions about law, morality, humanity, etc. involved. But both "One Breath" and "Before I Met You" made me realize that love can't solve everything. To borrow the phrase "Before I Met You", I love you, but I love myself more than myself.
