Love, Family and Friendship: Always Support You

2017 movie. British film. The same as the 2011 French "Unreachable" I watched before, it is about paralyzed people. Both belong to the economic is not bad money.

The British story happened before the invention of the wheelchair: soon after the male and female protagonists fell in love and got married, the female protagonist was pregnant, and suddenly the male protagonist was paralyzed and unable to move. The male protagonist is desperate and does not want to live, the female protagonist disagrees and asks what can be done for him. The male protagonist said, that's fine, but I don't want to live in the hospital all the time, I want to go home. The heroine agreed and set about helping him "escape" from the hospital. The hospital has medical conditions to ensure that you will not die to the greatest extent, but the hospital cannot control the life of a normal person. The male protagonist is very clear about what he needs to pursue. He would rather take certain risks in exchange for some free life and convince his wife. And his wife has always supported him: first of all, she went to buy a house. The old owner of the house offered 12,000 pounds and said that he could give 10,000 pounds. The female owner has been so troublesome to take care of the house, and according to the local house price assessment, the asking price was too high. 7,000 pounds, the old man shook hands with him and made a deal.

The female protagonist supports the male protagonist's husband, and the female protagonist's mother supports the female protagonist, living with them, helping to take care of the patients and children together. The sky was so beautiful when I was taken out of the hospital when I was lying down, with blue sky and white clouds, but I couldn't see it when I was lying in the hospital... When I got home, I could see the child and the naughty dog... I kept watching the child slowly. Growing up...inviting friends and family for a party at home...what a life!

At first, the heroine's twin brother felt that the heroine had other better choices, but the sister chose to support them, and would always help behind the back. And the friend of the inventor doctor, when the protagonist encountered a breakdown in his wheelchair in Spain, he rushed to repair it for them with a phone call! And the friend who performed euthanasia for him... and the final farewell party touched me very much. Germany's advanced medical care, the conditions inside are excellent and spotless, but it is still scary to see so many heads! In the speech of persuading Germany, the male protagonist's words also touched me. The male protagonist also persuaded the rich old man to donate to support the mass production of wheelchairs! Really admirable.

The love and family in the movie are so good, it is always what you choose, and I will always support you!

    Slightly disappointed, the overall is still too conventional,

    Claire Foy always looks so righteous and it's really boring. What I like most is when he came home that day and finally saw the garden, the roof, the sky again, this moment is full of regrets, no matter how advanced the film technology is, the lens eye is far inferior to the human eye.

Breathe quotes

  • Robin Cavendish: Let me ask you, when you look at me, what is it that you see? Do you see a creature that's barely alive? Or do you see a man that's escaped the confines of the hospital wards? Now, I have a machine under this very seat, and it breathes for me. And at home, I have a ventilator by my bed. I also have a remarkable group of friends. And most vitally I have my wife. But, as you see, I can do nothing for myself. And yet here I am. When I first became paralysed, I wanted to die. Yeah, I wanted to die, I did. But my wife wouldn't let me. She told me I had to live. To see our son grow up. So I went on living... because she told me to. Because of her, really. And with her. And for her. And every day since then, I've accepted the risk of dying because I don't want to just survive. I want to truly live. So, I implore you, you go back to your hospitals and you tell your disabled patients that they too can truly live. You all have this power to open the gates and set them free.

  • Colin Campbell: There is something I have to say. I want you to know what a difference you've made to my life. It's not always been easy for me. Every time I come here... I go away stronger. And it's not because you're worse off than me.

    Robin Cavendish: No, no, no.

    Colin Campbell: It's who you are, Robin. Or who you've turned yourself into, God knows how.

    Robin Cavendish: Thank you, Col.

    Colin Campbell: I'm gonna miss you.
