Debating euthanasia with live boldly

Love Amour (2012), nominated for the best picture at the 85th Academy Awards, once again brought the topic of euthanasia into the screen discussion: "When your life is about to end, how do you leave this world with dignity?", "Your loved one is going through pain and suffering, accompanied by Is it really better than the end?"

There is a line in "Eternal Sleep" in the 77th Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film: The freedom that restrains life is not true freedom, and the life that restrains freedom is not true life. In the movie, Raymond Sampedro was paralyzed from the neck down at the age of 26 after a diving accident at the seaside. In 1993, the fifty-year-old Raymond launched a lawsuit, asking the Spanish government to allow him to assisted suicide and euthanize him.

In 2014, an Israeli/German film "The Farewell Party" won the Best Film Award at the Valladolid Film Festival in Spain. The story takes place directly in a nursing home. An old grandmother is dying, and a few old friends quietly make a death machine - as long as the grandma presses a button, she can commit suicide. The director's shots are righteous and witty, pounding the moral block with silent, absurd black humor.

And me before you once again made me pay attention to euthanasia, and I was especially moved by Will's final approach. It was indeed the most tolerant liberation of a person whose nature was high and the bird could fly. Since the beginning of the past two years, I have gradually become more able to live in the present moment, in a timely manner. It is not bad to be brave and firm in life.

Also worth mentioning - director Thea Sherlock's stage play background. Thea Sharrock became the art director of London's Southwark Playhouse at the age of 24, making her the youngest art director ever for a British theatre. As the goddess of the literary world, Thea Sherlock is very productive. Her credits include Cloud Nine, Happy Now?, After the Dance, Shakespeare's As You Like It, and many more. In addition to the curling blessing, she has partnered with Keira Knightley, Damian Lewis, Damian Lewis, whoever is a goddess and goddess. This time, Thea Sherlock finally begins to challenge the big screen! I like this way of bringing the abundant emotion of the stage play into the infiniteness of the movie.

watching the movie, I will evaluate it again. I am completely disappointed and unconvincing. . But still love the theme.
There is a very beautiful scene. When Will and Lou went on a trip, Will was in a wheelchair and saw Lou standing on the coastline dancing a strange dance. Although it is not beautiful, that kind of relaxation is the most beautiful of Lou. place.
"If I had known it was so good, I would have come!"

Come on!YOLO! You only live once!

    After months of waiting, it finally arrived. From what looked so plain in front of them, at the end, the two of them were instantly moved by their reliance. Love is bewildering and incomparably attractive, but there are things that cannot be stopped. The film's choice of Weir's insistence is also considered the reaction of most audiences. There is still a lot of controversy about this "An Le". I can understand Will's decision. I have seen and experienced the most beautiful scenery, but in the end I can only lie down...

    In the whole film, only Long Ma's colorful clothes and Sam's face is so handsome that no matter how you look at it, the CP feeling is one of the weakest I have ever seen. Every time I give Long Ma a close-up close-up, I can't bear it. The eyebrows are too dramatic. , In the end, the long kiss before Lin'an euthanized was so embarrassing that it made a collective laugh in the cinema. I didn't feel very inspirational, but I still stuffed a lot of chicken soup for the sublimation of the content. The most promiscuous Mary Sue movie of the year, I can't stand it when I get older.
