Humans and clones, whose life is more meaningful, is the question left by Cathy at the end of the film. In fact, we all know the answer - whether it is a human or a clone, everyone's life is equally meaningful and important.
I haven't read the original book. If there are clones who live and die in the form of the film, the author's intention is probably to accuse this cold society and the human beings who harm the lives of cloned human beings.
All the cloned children in the film live in the concept of fate and choose the time of death in the way that humans have instilled in them. I don't understand why they didn't resist. Why not do a clone uprising or something?
Slowly experience the fear and sadness of these cloned children before they step onto the cold operating table, let the cold iodine smear their chests, and let the scalpel cut through their chests. Tommy's smile before his death should be the best consolation for Cathy's fear and sadness when she is dying.
In "Piano Boy Who Wants to Fly", there is a similar "famous saying": "What you have to do in life is to move forward bravely according to the arrangement of fate". Very inspirational words. In the world of "Don't Let Me Go", it is full of fate. It can be changed to "What you have to do in life is to follow the arrangement of fate and move forward forever, without thinking about the helplessness and sadness of fate."
Whether it is a human being or a clone, there are still many things in life that we need to think about, and we are in ignore them in life.
As to whether there is true love between Cathy and Tommy, there should be the best proof in that reunion many years later, after Tommy had donated twice. Cathy saw Tommy standing outside in the car. It didn't matter what Ruth said in her ear, she just got out of the car and hugged Tommy tightly. And Tommy heard Cathy say that Ruth was in the car, and immediately put down Cathy to greet Ruth. Although it was only a light kiss on the cheek, it also proved their friendship.
Finally, a digression, Sally Hawkins, who played Mrs. Lucy, played Sue in "Fingersmith".
The little actor who plays little Tommy, his acting skills are really good, he looks like little Liu Ye.
The acting of the two heroines is excellent. I didn't like Keira very much before, but this movie feels like she played really well.
