The film Now is good (Chinese name: "Live in the moment") is familiar from the song I know you care. I remember that I fell in love with this song first. The prelude to this song is like a chorus of children's voices. This song is soothing only To the tune of piano accompaniment, this song sings for a moving story, a story about dreams and life...
The heroine, Tessa, 17 years old, is the age of a flower, a person who can obviously live a normal life like everyone else , A girl who goes to school, falls in love, pursues her dreams, and has infinite expectations for the future, but is plagued by a terminal illness - leukemia. It can be seen that this must be a tragic film, but there is no tearful part at the beginning of the film. Tessa looks energetic, and is "selling accounts" for her list step by step. The list is almost full of crazy things sex, drug, crime... I didn't have much sympathy for this girl at the beginning, She is always optimistic, loves to laugh, gets angry with her parents, doesn't like to be discussed by others about her illness, and is sometimes rebellious like a wild lion. But all of this was later found to be a strong narrative. When everything seemed to go unsatisfactory, she met Adam, the boy next door, like God made up for all the injustices of her fate, and he was indeed her true son. The scene of breaking into the woods was the first scene that left a deep impression on me: first, the scene entered a calm green, soft sunlight, the girl climbed on the tree trunk, looked at the sky, her eyes showed a trace Surprise, excitement, anticipation, longing——"I'm not sick here" Indeed, perhaps what troubles the girl is not only the pain of illness, but also the different eyes of others, the disagreement of parents, and the meaningless life, There is also the fear of death... She is just an ordinary girl, longing for life, longing for love, longing for a peaceful life, longing for dreams, but even time is a luxury for her. ——"I just need to stay here in this wood. I need to keep away from the modern world and all its gadgets". That is, from here, I started to find resonance with the heroine, and slowly entered the heroine's life. Inner world.
Adam is always there when she needs help the most. He doesn't mind her condition and decides to take care of her and protect her. They go for a ride, watch the sea together... accompany her to do whatever she wants, She seems to have been reborn, but the girl's life has been shrouded in the shadow of illness, the time is getting longer, the cancer cells continue to spread, the constant chemotherapy, and the attack makes her so weak that she can't live a normal life, just as she and Adam fantasize together In the future life, fate is so cruel. Her time has reached a certain number, and she begins to treat life slowly and gently, to everyone around her, to her unfulfilled dreams, maybe Adam's appearance, maybe time reminds her what to do.
It all came so calm, moved, sad, tears... It came so calm and natural, she clumsily made breakfast for her parents, greeted her sisters who had been for many years, and stared blankly in the yard Playing with the child's younger brother, tears finally came out of her eyes. After a long time, the catharsis was finally in a gentle way. In the face of all the unsatisfactory, in the face of terrible illness and chemotherapy, this proud girl did not shed a single tear, but in these When the happy pictures were shown one after another, the strength of the heart was finally crushed by the truth. She actually cherished everything around her. Why didn't she want to appear in those happy pictures, but it was just a beautiful dream.
17 years old, I can't imagine that this is a girl of the same age as me, who should have a perfect life, planting your favorite flowers in the backyard should not be just a dream, her pursuit is as simple and simple as a daisy, and she is as strong as Cactus stood proudly in the wind and frost, and she asked the nurse about her condition without hesitation, "Next, your appetite will drop, you will feel thirsty, sometimes you will have a fever, you will want to sleep very much, and you have almost no energy. It will make you feel pain and have some sweet dreams..." The soft sunlight hit her face, she just frowned, without crying or tears, she just asked softly: "It will hurt In the face of death and the fear of the unknown, she showed extraordinary strength and perseverance, and the "I hate it when you say days" girl's strong character was brought into full play once again. At this time, I can no longer restrain the sadness in my heart, cry for the cruelty of the fate; move for the tenacity under the adversity; regret for the reluctance and the beauty of the attachment.
"Moments... our life is a series of moments. Each one a journey to the end. Let them go, let them all go." In this way,
girls are in beautiful fantasy scenes, in the call of their loved ones, away from Go - serene, serene.
"Moments... our life is a series of moments. All gathering towards this one"
recalls the girl's life - short, crazy, cruel, but also left with those touching beauty. She is strong, arrogant, and beautiful. Underneath her beautiful appearance, she is actually a sensitive and fragile heart. The reason why she is rebellious and disgusted with external things is that what she wants is not the sympathy of the world, but the equal respect of other girls. Just don't want to show the patient's tenderness, but want to tell the world her strength, her faith in life, as the lyrics sing: "Why can't I dream?" Tessa uses her actions to tell us that even if the time is short, she Also want her life to end wonderfully, not mediocre, pitiful, meaningless. So no matter when, you can have a dream and work hard for it. It's never too late, and everything can be done all over again. What's more, what is the reason for you not to think and do this as a complete person? But she is also a weak girl, tormented by illness, afraid of death, afraid of losing her family, losing friends, losing her lover, she is just an ordinary girl, 17 years old, leukemia, her life is about to end, but she still embraces life Hopeful and longing for life. I can't forget her face that simply yearns for green and nature; the simple smile that blooms for a red kite; the eyes that focus on the horse running, all of which are for the life of life craving.
But she did do it, for her dream, although it was still a little imperfect, she did do it, she learned to be strong, she experienced everything she had to experience, she felt the same happiness as others, cherish it She went to the people she should cherish, admired the most charming scenery, and had the most beautiful dreams... It can be said that her life was short and painful, and she did not leave any regrets. She used all her efforts to give her Life has a perfect ending, although she is only 17 years old, and she is as beautiful as a flower.
To put it cruelly, some people live to the age of 80. If they do nothing in their lives, have no pursuits, and have no beliefs, it is really unbearable for this girl's 17-year-old who is full of enthusiasm, dares to pursue, and loves life.
"Death is very peaceful and easy, but living is more difficult."
The most painful thing in life is not the trick of fate, but when you look back and reflect on your past life, you find that there is nothing to say.
Now is good.
