The film is based on John Green's novel of the same name, "The Incredible Pain" and tells the story of love, life and death between two teenagers with cancer.
At the beginning of the story, Heizer said: "I'm not actually depressed, but my mother always thinks I'm depressed because depression is a common complication of cancer. But depression is not a complication of cancer, depression is a dying person Depression is a side effect of dying."
Hazel was diagnosed with thyroid cancer at the age of 16. With the help of new drugs, Hazel's condition gradually improved. He had to carry an oxygen tank and a hose to breathe. Her parents were afraid of her depression, and her attending doctor hoped that Heather would be more optimistic, and introduced her to a mutual aid association for cancer friends.
Here, she met teenagers like her. Everyone introduced themselves like ordinary teenagers of the same age, except that they would add their own diseases after their names. One day, Heather met a man who lost his life due to bone cancer. A boy with one leg - Augustus, he used a word when he introduced himself - oblivion (forgotten), he expressed his concern that he would be forgotten because of death, but he was never willing to participate in mutual aid at this time, Hazel, who was never willing to open his heart, stood up and said: "One day everyone will disappear and everyone will be forgotten, even if he is as great as Mozart, after a few years, no one will stay specifically to remember him, and more importantly. Not to mention everyone here, so if you're afraid of this, it's better to forget about it as soon as possible, because that's what everyone else does."
After the mutual aid meeting, Augustus came to talk to Hae-jin. He also invited Hazel to watch a movie at his home and chatted in the car. At the Augustus's house, they share each other's interests and hobbies.
Augustus asked Hazel: "Tell me the real you, not your history of disease resistance, but the real you, what do you like and what are your hobbies?" So Hazel and Gus shared their favorite The book, a sentence in this book, and a sentence throughout the film - That's the thing about pain. It demands tobefelt. Pain needs to be felt. This book gave Hazel, who was suffering from cancer, great courage and inspiration. It was her spiritual support after her cancer. She needed more empathy than physical pain. But this book hurriedly ends the story with half a sentence. After the death of the protagonist Anna, what happened to the others? The writer did not write, and Hazel wrote letter after letter to the writer, but never got a reply.
When Augustus appeared, everything changed. He was originally a talented basketball player, but bone cancer made him a half-joking "machine boy" in his mouth. His home was filled with his precancerous children. trophy, he told Heisel optimistically: "I finally have the opportunity to tell my dad how much I hate basketball." He is sunny and optimistic, he is like a beam of sunshine into Heisel's life, August Jean Hazel experienced the passion and happiness that young people should have. She saw the mountains and rivers in the world in his eyes. He made Hazel no longer be afraid of the morning sun, but became more concerned about every day in life. ,full of expectation. She felt "empathy" for the first time, her parents loved her, but they couldn't achieve "empathy", what she needed was what Van Gogh wrote in his letter: "Everyone has a fire in their hearts. , the passers-by can only see the smoke, but there is always one person, there is always that one person who can see the fire, and then come to accompany me. I saw his fire in the crowd, I walked over quickly, for fear Slow down and he will be drowned in the dust of the years." August was the fire in Hazel's life, and they were on the brink of extinction, leaning against each other, burning tenaciously.
They have been together for a long time before the first hug between friends, and after a long time before the first kiss, they never hug or kiss, but they can look into each other's eyes, talk about their hobbies and needs, forget Pain in the body.
Augustus contacted the author of the book when he learned that Hazel liked the book "The Most Beautiful Pain" and wanted to know the final outcome. After Augustus got the assistant writer's email, he handed it over to Hazel, who worked up the courage to write an email to the assistant writer.
The emails were quickly answered, and to her surprise, the writer's assistant invited Hazel to visit and discuss more clearly the future of the story. But at this time, Hazel's mother revealed the reality that the family had no money, and Hazel couldn't go.
Augustus heard that Hazel couldn't make an appointment because of lack of money, and he suddenly remembered the Magic Lamp Foundation, an organization to meet the wishes of the disabled, and there is only one chance to make a wish in a lifetime.
But Hazel said he had used that opportunity to go to Disneyland. Augustus didn't want Hazel to lose this opportunity, so he gave up his wish quota.
Take Heizel and go to Holland to realize her wish - to know the ending of that novel in a time when life may disappear at any time.
But the novel that propelled Heather through the toughest times was indeed written by an alcoholic and decadent novelist who disdains and despises the novel. There is no need for the end of man, "one infinity is greater than the other infinity." He calls them "the inferior products of human evolution", and he will give them no mercy.
Hazel was heartbroken, and the giant tower that had been supporting her collapsed in an instant. She sat on the ground weakly crying, but Augustus told her over and over again: "It's okay, it's okay, I can write a better story for you. , don't be sad." Hazel was used to Gus, she didn't realize that August was her giant tower. With his encouragement, she was able to climb the steps of the Anne Frank Memorial; the space on each floor of Anne's residence was small, and the only way to get to the upper floor was stairs. For normal people, there is nothing wrong with climbing a few stairs, but for Hazel, who has lung cancer, it is difficult to get into the sky. She will gasp harder if she does not climb a few steps. When they climbed to the top floor, all of Hazel's discomfort suddenly subsided. She breathed the air freely, and her heart suddenly became clear. She didn't want to wait until the end of her life to do what she wanted to do. She stood on tiptoe and kissed actively. Augustus.
Although they don't know how much time they have left, at least they bravely faced their hearts, and even if death comes, they will have no regrets.
Augustus told her lightly that his cancer had spread throughout his body, and that when Hazel got sick, he was actually much more serious. Hazel recalled rejecting Augustus' words, thinking she was a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment. But Augustus smiled and said, "I'm honored to be sad for you." Hazel remembered that when she couldn't breathe and her chest was on fire, when the nurse asked her how bad the pain was, she stretched out nine fingers , not because she was brave, but because she wanted to save the tenth-degree pain to the end, and she realized that such pain was coming soon.
Soon after their return, Augustus was unable to stand and walk and was in a wheelchair. Augustus wanted to hold a funeral for himself. He invited Hazel to write his eulogy. In the last days of his life, Augustus was so weak that he could only move through a wheelchair. He called Hazel to the church. , want to hear his own eulogy. "Our love story was epic," Hazel said. "I couldn't open my mouth to tell it, but if I told it, I would be drowned in tears..." There are countless numbers between 1 and 2, she said. Each infinity is greater than the others, and Augustus makes me feel eternity in a limited time.
Augustus is always optimistic, he never seems to be serious, but this time he sat on the grass where he once lay with Hazel, crying feebly: "I know it's childish, but I always expect myself to be A hero with a great story to be in the newspapers, I was supposed to be a different person." But Hazel told him: "You're different, you're always obsessed with making People remember you. I think you're special, isn't that enough. You think that in order to live a meaningful life, everyone remembers you and loves you, but guess what, this is your life, you just This is what you can get, me, your family, the world you can face. If these are not enough for you, then I am sorry, at least you are not empty-handed. Because I love you, I will remember you.” Heizer Because of the existence of Augustus, Er is extremely strong. We can't choose life, since it's all destined to happen, we can only choose to accept it.
Augustus left eight days later, and Hazel did not read her prepared eulogy, but instead said many words of encouragement, so that those who are sick will know that funerals are not for the dead, but for those who are still alive. Prepared, so that the living can start a new life with the love of the deceased. She hoped that everyone could remember Gus like this - the young man who was always sunny, strong and smiling at the last moment of his life.
At the age of 13, Hazel heard her mother say: "I'm not a mother anymore." This sentence became a knot in Hazel's heart. She is not afraid of being forgotten, she is afraid of what will happen to the people she loves and loves herself when that day comes? When her mother persuaded her to eat more dinner to stay healthy, Hazel yelled sarcastically: "Stay healthy? You keep a terminal lung cancer healthy? What's the point? I'm going to die soon, and then you'll never be My mother, you no longer have your life, you can only sit in front of a house full of memories and miss me all day." But mother said without hesitation: "No, we do know about your condition, But after you die, I will still be your mother, and will always be your mother."
She told Heather that she had taken a social worker training course and hoped to help more families like them, but they were afraid that Heizer would feel left out and had not been able to tell her, but Heizer cried with relief Happy for her mother, she is not afraid of being forgotten like Augustus, she is afraid that her departure will ruin the family's happy and fulfilling life, but now she feels that death is not the end, her death will be. It is the beginning of a new life for the people around her, and she is sincerely happy for her parents.
The Augusto writer handed her his eulogy to Hazel: "You don't have to worry if she's smarter than you, because you know she is. She's funny and not mean, and I love her. The way to choose not to be hurt, but you can choose who to be hurt." The writer told Heather that the real ending in the book - life comes from life, and Anna was based on her daughter who died of cancer. Lying in the grass in the night sky, Hazel looked at the dark and boundless night sky and gained a long peace.
