Realistic and calm record "live", there are crying, laughing, anger, despair, escape, forgiveness, regret and shake. The movie is more about the positive energy of American values, but the reality is that Jeff and his wife are still divorced. The same series "Terrorist Attack on Boston" can be watched together. PS, the ending song Homecoming-Josh Ritter, "Billions" Billions also used. 2019.5.2 6/10

Jeff Bauman: [voice over] And now it's just about healing, getting better, and showing the world I'm fine and that, you know. I'm not gonna let this hold me down, you know, because maybe if they see that, then maybe they won't let stuff hold them down, either. And, you know, there's always gonna be pain, I think, but, I don't know, I just wanna, like... live.
