    The translated name of "Ask the Heavens without Speech" must be taken from the lines of the patient's mother. Although I am an atheist, I still feel that there is an extremely powerful force in this universe that dominates our lives and...

    If you evaluate it from the point of view of film alone, compared with similar classics like "Flying Over the Cuckoo's Nest", this film seems a bit long and fragmented. But in my opinion, it's the closest thing to a character Robin Williams himself, where he shows a more unknown side, sensitive, lonely, out-of-the-ordinary, inarticulate, but as kind as ever. He and De Niro complement each other's acting skills are touching. Well done, my...

    Research treatment of post-encephalitic patients has been plagued by ups and downs. The patient Leonard Lowe was out for a drive with Dr. Sayer. He wanted to walk freely.

    doctor's parents

    The hearts of doctors and parents. Kindness and benevolence. As a doctor, good medical skills are of course important, and it is undoubtedly more valuable to be able to treat patients equally, and to treat every patient with kindness. A doctor with a good attitude is half the medicine. Gu Long said...

    why me?

    It is generally believed that the title of the movie is not well translated, but I actually think it is not bad. After watching the movie, the biggest feeling is indeed: ask the sky silently. Ask, why me? why me? Leonard reminded me of "life as it is" suddenly, like Leonard's excited monologue...

Awakenings quotes

  • Dr. Sayer: His gaze is from the passing of bars so exhausted, that it doesn't hold a thing anymore. For him, it's as if there were thousands of bars and behind the thousands of bars no world. The sure stride of lithe, powerful steps, that around the smallest of circles turns, is like a dance of pure energy about a center, in which a great will stands numbed. Only occasionally, without a sound, do the covers of the eyes slide open-. An image rushes in, goes through the tensed silence of the frame- only to vanish, forever, in the heart.

  • Anthony: [cheerfully] How's it going?

    Frank: How's it going?

    Anthony: Yeah, how do you feel?

    Frank: Well, my parents are dead. My wife is in an institution. My son has disappeared out west somewhere.

    [pause]

    Frank: I feel old and I feel swindled, that's how I feel.
