"Mother of Dragons" Emilia Clarke still shows off her unique eyebrows in this "Before I Met You", but behind those mischievous expressions, people really remember The mind track of a girl who has witnessed the baptism of life and death. This kind of story about life and death decisions and about the last dignity is not uncommon, but this film still uses a bystander perspective, not only let us appreciate all this again, but more importantly, we can gain insight into what will happen to the emotional interaction between two people possibility.
"Dragon Mother" plays Clark, a small town girl who is not motivated. She has been working as a waiter in a cafe. The cafe closed, she was fired, and she had to go to a family to apply for a nursing job. This girl without any nursing experience is clumsy and dull. She needs to take care of Will, a high-profile paraplegic with a quirky temper, and Clark is left behind because the former carer can't get along with him. Will is a rich and handsome man who was paralyzed for life because of a car accident. During that time of company, the clumsy girl and the man whose fate was reversed changed from confrontation and tug-of-war to intimacy. Perhaps none of them would have thought that they would rewrite a piece of each other's life by themselves.
From a certain point of view, "Before I Met You" is not a story about how to choose in the face of such a cruel encounter, but more about explaining to people how we can build and enrich the process of life. The two of them met in an unexpected form, gradually interacted in the process of conflicting with each other, and finally, in the form of complete separation, re-entered each other.
From the surface of the story, the setting of the two people is very simple and clear. The girl who is a nurse is a normal person, and the Gao Fushuai who is a patient is a disabled person, but after the story progresses, people will find that everything is not so Simple, the girl is only able-bodied, but when she grows up to this age, her life has always been monotonous and cramped, she has never left this small town, her dreams are always suppressed by her family and herself, and she is performing happily with a selfish boyfriend, and she has never even watched it In contrast, the man who was trapped in a wheelchair and a hospital bed had traveled the world and had surging ambitions. He told the girl about the outside scenery and encouraged her to leave her current life. She watched movies with subtitles, which made her understand what choice and surprise are. In this sense, something has been quietly flipping, and who would you say is the more "sound" person? Originally, it was the nurses who came to care for the patients, the relationship between active and passive, but now, everything has become complementary. The man who had always refused to go out is now willing to bask in the sun and chat with the girl, and the girl also began to "travel" a new world through the man's brain. This mutual need relationship began to advance more and more deeply. The girl becomes the body of the man, and the man becomes the brain of the girl. They use themselves to make each other complete and make themselves complete.
The reason this movie doesn't degenerate into outright sensationalism is because death never really leaves the table from the start. The paralyzed man knows so well his situation and the rest of his life that he has been contacting Swiss euthanasia agencies. As a simple-minded small-town girl, Clark's good intentions were mixed with Will's mother's hopes that she felt that she could make him change his mind. So she strikes while the iron is hot, eats out with Will, goes to concerts, and even goes on vacation to the beach. The fireworks and smiling faces blooming on the seashore, the kisses in the rainy night all night, in fact, they all understand what kind of affection they have with each other. But at this moment, Will still told the girl that he was very happy during this time, but his determination to go to Switzerland had not changed a little bit.
Sadness was inevitable, but in the end, she went to Switzerland and accompanied him to the last stop in the ward. If it is said that the previous period was a step forward for her, the last stop was a real rebirth. Life is just a line, with a beginning and an end. When a person cannot live freely, his only freedom is to choose a dignified and early arrival at the end. This is another way of grasping destiny.
This unexpectedly intertwined life has brought each other flickering passages. Will expresses all his emotions in his letter to the girl, what he means is that when you become my body, I live in your heart. Even if life and death are separated, who can be closer than them? The encounter between people is sometimes so wonderful, they only overlap each other for a short period of time, or even just cross each other, but they affect each other far more than those who have been together for a long time.
