When the leaves are falling

The narrative angle is novel. The Alzheimer's disease themes I watched before were all based on the patient's surrounding environment and people. This film shows the patient's chaotic memory from the first perspective of the patient, and it is very interesting to match the suspenseful soundtrack.

The undergraduate video course also tried to film Alzheimer's disease, and learned that the patient's memory and cognitive function declined, and then he lost the ability to adapt to social life. This process will kill the patient's will and consume all family members. energy and affection. There are also cases of this kind of predicament around me. The neighbor’s grandfather also suffers from Alzheimer’s disease. It’s not the scene where the children serve a demented father and then burst into tears. Be patient, my uncle began to beat and scold my grandfather, locked the old man at home, and often heard the old man knocking on the door at home and calling out for help. This kind of torture is depressive and realistic, and human nature is complex and cannot be viewed in a two-dimensional, one-size-fits-all manner. Just as Anne was in so much pain that she had fantasized about strangling her delirious father to death.

Sometimes when I can't sleep in the middle of the night, I think hypocritically about the meaning of life. It's really good to have memories in life. Whether it is extreme happiness or extreme sadness, all these memories constitute a complete individual. I rely on memory to survive, I am not afraid of death, only afraid of forgetting. If I also feel that late autumn is coming, wind and rain are coming, and my leaves are falling one by one, I don't know what can support my life at that time, or I can choose to end it all and go quietly and decently.

Also, Anthony Hopkins is doing great! Every frame of emotion is very moving, from a stubborn old man who is strong and arrogant and refuses all kinds of nurses, to a miserable old man who has lost all his decency like a baby and just wants to find his mother, his attention is completely attracted by him . Although the old man no longer needs the golden man to be crowned, this Oscar for Best Actor is well deserved!

  • Anthony: Can I ask you a question?

    Laura: Yes.

    Anthony: Are you a nun?

    Laura: No.

    Anthony: Then why are you speaking to me as if I'm retarded?

  • Anthony: I am worried. It's very worrying. I mean... Losing all my things, everyone's just helping themselves, and... If this goes on much longer, um, I'll be stark naked. And, um, I... I won't be able to tell what time it is.
