Living in the moment

A movie I watched because of the words "Days Without Me" in the title. Because I, like many people, always have similar thoughts at some inadvertent moment - "What if I will die soon, what will happen to the people I love and the people who love me." "Even though there is a lot of helplessness, the result of thinking is still a lot of reluctance.
The heroine Ann was suddenly declared "death penalty" in her ordinary and happy life day after day. With only 2 months left, she re-examined her life. The coffee shop earnestly lists a few deceptively simple life goals for the short life (showing love to her daughter every day; husband finding a new wife; getting a new haircut; visiting dad in prison; A man ML...), and used the cassette to record her own thoughts and best wishes for everyone around her. It's just that she didn't expect how cruel it was to the people who loved her, and the person she loved disappeared. Afterwards, only her voice will accompany her, which undoubtedly deepens and perpetuates the great pain of losing the person she loves most, and will even accompany her for life.
The film's ending doesn't touch on Ann's death as directly as other films, but in her feeble voice shows all the things she wishes in her last wish: a re-dressed mom going on a date, a lover painting their house or saying they ever The tryst house, the hubby and the two lovely daughters and the aunt next door who they both love are ready for a drive out. . . Everything seems to have come true.
After reading it, something seems to be touched in my heart. Why do people always wait until they know that they will be in this prosperous world soon, and then they will soberly realize what they should do, and then they really realize that many things are not so well done. It's hard to learn how to forgive people who aren't really that hateful. . . Thinking about people who are thinking about how to live every day but are afraid or lazy to change, it seems that they should feel the fragility of life and the fragrance of life like ANN. Change a sentence of Ashin's song "If a person will live every day as the end of the world", what kind of love for life should be, and how fulfilling his life should be. Simply put, it is to live in the moment.

    Would love a few rain scenes in the movie. In the compartment where the sound of the torrential rain is cut off, I scream if I don't kiss me. Carrying a packed lunch box in the rain, I was carried back and forth in my arms. All are fine. Sad to see.

    Is there anything crueler than knowing your own date of death before you die? The scene where Annie keeps recording her last words to the child in the car is the best scene in the movie.

My Life Without Me quotes

  • [last lines]

    Ann: [tape to Lee] I loved dancing with you.

  • Ann: [off] This is you. Eyes closed, out in the rain. You never thought you'd be doing something like this, you never saw yourself as, I don't know how you'd describe it... Is like one of those people who like looking up at the moon, who spend hours gazing at the waves or the sunset or... I guess you know the kind of people I'm talking about. Maybe you don't. Anyway, you kind of like being like this, fighting the cold, feeling the water seep through your shirt and getting through your skin. And the feel of the ground growing soft beneath your feet. And the smell. And the sound of the rain hitting the leaves. All the things they talked about in the books you haven't read. This is you, who would have guessed it? You.
