"Now Is Good", Chinese "Live in the moment".
Tessa Scott (Fanning) was a 17-year-old girl with leukemia, which doctors admitted was incurable, so she gave up treatment. Today, four years later, she's making a list of things to do before she ends her life, and the first item is to have her first sexual encounter.
In the beginning, the tone was cool gray, Tessa looked a little sick, and the atmosphere was weird, but when she finished the first item on the list with that weirdo, she ran away, and the song "Blue Jeans" sounded, I remember the lyrics In a word, I will love you till the end of time, I would wait a million years, maybe, Tessa's list just represents her desire to live, and she is stubborn.
The beauty of Tessa makes me feel suffocated, such pure blue eyes, just a glance, without too many words, is enough to capture the soul. The sun shone on her skin, as if glowing with golden light. Every time I get a close-up of her face, my eyes always feel out of focus. It shouldn't be because of the quality of the picture. I may not be able to look directly at such beauty. In short, the calmness and indifference on her face is particularly disturbing.
When Tessa met Adam for the first time, the two fell in love at first sight, which made people feel that the story of this handsome man and beauty is already very beautiful, but I don't know what will happen next, I will cry to the point of collapse.
Tessa wants to be famous on the list, do drugs, be a pickpocket, selfishly want everyone because she's a cancer patient, she has to satisfy her. However, she is also very well-behaved and strong in healing. The doctor said: She will feel the feeling of being pulled in the chest. It makes me think that, in fact, Tessa needs a lot of courage just to face the treatment.
After Tessa took drugs, sitting in Adam's car, looking out the window, people lived an ordinary and sweet life, the sun was shining on the street, on the roof, on people, Tessa said softly: don't be afraid. On the trees in the forest, Theis whispered and spoke, his dark blue eyes looking at the sky infinitely far-reaching, making people very calm.
What impressed me the most was when Adam took her to the edge of the white cliff and sat on a chair, she said, only in moments like this, I don't think about it, I'm about to die, this thing.
Her smile can actually comfort me a lot. On the way home, the two people standing on the bus hugged each other because of the bumps. The sunlight penetrated the picture. The natural color of this film is actually warm.
Adam was riding a motorcycle, and he was so handsome that he stopped in front of Tessa's dad's car, took off his helmet, and waved to Tessa, while Tessa left his dad and jumped on the back seat of Adam's motorcycle to hug him, in the background of happy music , They are galloping on the beach where the sunset is sprinkled. This scene is romantic and makes people yearn for love.
However, the plot did not go on with ease and joy. Tessa, who was excited to go to the appointment, had symptoms of terminal cancer, and the nosebleeds continued, which also scared Adam. At this time, Tessa's parents began to face Tessa's illness together. Mom no longer escaped. Mom said: When I stay. Tessa's father's suppressed tears welled up in his eyes, and sadness began to brew.
I thought Adam would shrink back cowardly. However, on the way home the next day, Tessa saw graffiti with her name all over the street. Of course she knew that this was Adam's masterpiece. The sun shines on every graffiti of Tessa's name, making people feel that it is not so desperate. Tessa's best friend is pregnant. Tessa said she would be the first to hold the baby. In the end, this was her only regret.
Tessa and Adam talk about things to put on the list, a train trip together, three babies, spring daffodils, tulips, a big savings, listen to you snore, year after year, follow you Being together, just being with you, these sounds, for ordinary people, are really simple and simple things, but Tessa just has no time to complete it, the doctor told her that her life, It's too short to wait for her best friend's delivery date. She sneaked out of the hospital, went home to find Adam, but Adam wanted to go back to school, Tessa angrily destroyed their sweet nest, squatting by the closet, Dad came in, Dad said sadly: You can't give me Anything left? I really lose you, I can't bear it. Dad Tessa was crying like a child. And here my tears burst once again.
Adam found Tessa on the edge of the cliff, Tessa forgave Adam, she understood, she is gone, the rest have to live and face life, she actually hopes that they can wipe away their tears and continue to live well down. She said: I will be a girl with long hair, meet you at school and ask you how your course selection is. Adam: I'll still fall in love with you at first sight, again. Adam walked back with Tessa in his arms, passing the racecourse, beautiful horses, running in the sunset, the scene once again made people feel warm and sad.
In Tessa's final death, her family did not hoarse their voices. Tessa just felt calmly and indifferently that they were whispering beside her, and the corner of her mouth was smiling. Finally, at the end of the movie, the beautiful pictures that the long-haired Tessa wanted to achieve were passed scene by scene, but they made my tears collapse so thoroughly. Tessa is a poor, beautiful person with such a short life. However, she is extremely lucky, her inner peace and indifference are exactly what the world cannot have, and, at least at the end of her life, she met Adam and she gained her love, which is on her list , nothing.
The ending song "I know you care", the piano sound, clean and slightly sandy voice of the singer, made the sentimentality brought to me by this movie more intense.
I sat blankly in front of the computer for a long time, not knowing what to say, really, living in the moment is already good, Now Is Good!
