I watched a movie because of my English teacher

"Beautiful Mind", "GOOD WILL HUNTING", "PATCH ADAMS", "RAIN MAN" and now this "AWAKENINGS", various mental diseases, autism, PTSD, and chronic diseases such as parkinson's disease, MIS Touretle syndrome, etc. .

It's similar to the neurological feeling that my senior sister had memorized for a week, except that she was dizzy.

Putting together these mentally disabled movies is cruel, to the audience.

For example, when Leo started to shiver afterward, I literally felt the brink of collapse. I had to close my eyes, I felt like I was overwhelmed, and I wanted to cry without tears.

Watching them afflicted by illness, I didn't even have a strong sympathy, or even the precious feeling of a healthy life.

This is the only way for doctors to see a lot of diseases, and they turn a blind eye when they collapse.

I am more and more afraid of the hospital, afraid of this English class.

Awakenings quotes

  • Dr. Sayer: What we do know is that, as the chemical window closed, another awakening took place; that the human spirit is more powerful than any drug - and THAT is what needs to be nourished: with work, play, friendship, family. THESE are the things that matter. This is what we'd forgotten - the simplest things.

  • Dr. Malcolm Sayer: She borrows the will of the ball.
