This summer, the "ALS Ice Bucket Challenge" is a public welfare activity that has taken the world by storm, allowing us to see the relay challenge of many tech giants, sports celebrities, and entertainment stars. This global public welfare activity makes everyone pay attention to gradually freezing People, this activity has disappeared now, but it does not mean that we can no longer pay attention to "gradual freezing of people." I hope that love and care will continue to spread. What they need is continuous attention and help.
The movie "Warm and Frozen Heart" starring two-time Oscar star Hilary Swank tells about Kate who suffers from ALS and meets Rebecca, a caregiver who is not tuned. They seem to be mismatched. Build a deep friendship. The same routine as the French film "Unreachable", but with a different touch, it gradually portrays the mental process of patients with gradual coldness. When a pianist can no longer play the piano, is attacked by an illness, and realizes that his life is about to end, how will he face his lover and family?
Seeing Kate finally died in the movie, basically he couldn't breathe. I really felt distressed. A good person just withered like this. This disease is really terrible, but fortunately our heroine has a good friend to accompany all the way. The girl who was promiscuous and alcoholic at first painted decadent smoky makeup, very unpleasant, but Kate was extremely tolerant of her, and in this way, the friendship between the two women began. At Christmas, Rebecca’s mother did hurt people, but as a mother, it’s okay to stand on her side. She just wants to protect her child. It also shows that the society's care for "gradually freezing people" is really too little.
As for the understanding of people with gradual freezing, I have also seen other relatively well-known movies related to the subject. The BBC movie "Hawking's Biography", the scientist known as the "king of the universe" Hawking is the most acquainted with "gradual freezing". A representative figure, he was diagnosed at the age of 21. Benedict Cumberbatch plays Hawking and restores the plot of encountering his wife Jane when Hawking suffered a fatal blow in his life. His divine restoration of the characters portrayed, let us know more about this great man. In the Japanese TV series "My Time To Live", Haruma Miura plays the role of Takuto Sawada, a college student suffering from ALS. When he learns that his time is running out, he gropes to spend the remaining life.
Ps "gradual freezing syndrome" is also known as atrophic lateral sclerosis or motor nerve cell atrophy. It is characterized by gradual muscle atrophy and weakness, and the body is like being gradually frozen, so it is commonly called "gradual freezing syndrome." The early symptoms are mild and easily confused with other diseases. The patient may just feel some symptoms such as weakness, muscle jumping, fatigue, etc., and gradually progress to general muscle atrophy and difficulty swallowing. Eventually, respiratory failure occurred.

    The film itself is tepid and deliberate, but in my recent mood, it is easy to be taken in, life is never charming, sometimes u just can do nothing...

    From the title of the film itself to the title of the Chinese translation, it's too low. I feel that apart from the actors who are working hard, the other main creative staff, crew members and production teams are very unconcerned!

You're Not You quotes

  • Bec: [not realizing they are on the baby monitor] I'm doing something positive. Something good. I'm helping another human being.

    Elizabeth: No, Rebekah my darling, you're not. What you *are* doing is exactly what you've done your entire life. You're focusing all of your energy, all of your time, on something that is doomed to fail. That poor, poor woman out there is going to die. And when she is gone, where does that leave you? With no future, no degree, and no means of supporting yourself. Nothing.

    Bec: Merry Christmas to you too, mom...

  • [last lines]

    Bec: Now you gotta promise me something. I'm gonna pay you a compliment, and you just gotta lay there and take it. Thanks for the manolos, and for teaching me how to cook. But the biggest thing that I have to thank you for is that you didn't let me fuck this up. 'Cause no one in my life has ever done that for me.

    Kate: [nod] Go now...
