life facing death

A beautiful woman or a handsome man is told by the doctor with concern: You have an incurable disease.
This may seem like the most vulgar plot, but the performance of this film is really brilliant.

Ann is the unfortunate young girl. In the last three months of her life, she has fulfilled ten wishes that she wants to realize the most.
Helping my husband and children find a qualified wife and mother,
recording the birthday messages for my two lovely daughters every year until they reach adulthood,
telling them how many times I will miss them in a day, and
finding my last lover,
Want to know what it's like to have sex with other men,
smoke and drink as
much as you want , speak out what you think,
go to jail to see your father who hasn't been masked for a long time,
and even change your hairstyle.
There are too many things to do at this young age,
not to mention that she has become the mother of two lovely girls in her early twenties,
watching the children do housework during the day, and a simple cleaning job at night to make a living. The
family of four is crowded together. In the RV in her mother's backyard.
She would spin and tell stories with
her daughter in her arms, she would encourage her husband to do something while he was young,
she would worry about a nagging mother having a bad influence on her daughter's mind, and
she would meet a caring man at the laundry Give her a warm coat, and
everything hastily ended in three months.

There is no description of fear of death,
only warm warmth and reluctance.
However, the montage at the end of the movie made me very uneasy. The
husband and children and the new wife happily went to the beach for a picnic, and the
mother also made a new boyfriend.
The old woman in the coffee shop is still buying lottery tickets and imitating the current idol actress,
the narcissistic Xiao Ni in the barber shop is still dancing happily in her own world,
the colleague who is obsessed with losing weight is still losing weight and eating, and the
lover is also Obediently repainted the walls, bought new furniture, and
waited for the next woman to arrive.
A true selfless life,
as if the self never appeared.
In the end, I really wanted to see the nostalgia for Ann in the eyes of these people, but I only saw overflowing happiness.
Only the good doctor, who
seemed to be indifferent, neatly placed the tapes she left behind.
