Before I met you

　　As we grow older, we feel more and more that the love story that ended up not being together is more beautiful. Life is a lonely individual, and in the end, it is also lonely to leave. You and I met each other to love and know each other, spend a good time together, and in the future trajectory of life eternal leave each other's influence. Even if this insignificant influence is to let me leave this world with more light in my heart, it is enough.

　　I went to see "me before you" in an anticipatory mood, after being highly praised and recommended by my friends around this movie. It is as if the unexpected is also reasonable, the nest down the whole time did not find a tear point. Yes, the movie is about the rich and handsome (of course, because of the wheelchair relationship, the hero's high can not be perfectly shown!) The love story with the short and poor girl, a "he changed her, but she failed to change him" story!

　　Before she met him, she didn't have any big ambitions, she was just a simple busy worker in a coffee shop in a small tourist town. During the recession, her father was laid off and her sister was raising her children at home before she finished college, so her job became an important support for her family's life, and at that time, the coffee shop closed and she lost her job. On the one hand, her family's financial situation was steeply strained by her unemployment, and on the other hand, she was busy with sales, sports, and various boastful and more or less unreliable boyfriends, and her life was helpless and boring. After a few twists and turns, she finds a job at a job center, facing a jumble of employment opportunities and trying everything, and finds a job as a waitress - accompanying and helping a physically disabled person.

　　Before she met him, he was completely confined to a wheelchair - severely paralyzed, only able to move from the neck up and slightly bend his fingers. It was only because of an accident two years ago that damaged his spine that he became so severely disabled. Before that, he was a financial elite, raised in a castle in a small town, handsome and dashing, the perfect diamond king. He fell from the top to the bottom of his life and attempted various suicides in two years, so she was hired by his mother to take care of him in the name of living, but in reality to watch over and prevent him from committing suicide.

　　At first, the two were contradictory and bumpy, and finally had mutual affection and love for each other. At this point for the girl, the purpose of doing this job is no longer a high salary, but to give him hope and reason to live. The man said that the first time he saw the woman's bright smile was like sunshine shooting into his heart. The worsening condition and physical and mental torture made him want to die at any time, so he thought of euthanasia. However, he could not just make a choice, even under the great pain, for the love of his parents he agreed to extend six months to perform euthanasia. Clark tried hard to get Will to change this decision, she loved him and he loved her, just too much helplessness existed, he wanted her to be free not wanting to be a hold on her.

　　The happy ending is always pleasing to the reader, but not necessarily thought-provoking. In the end, he still chose to die. Because it is his right.

　　However, in the six months of contact with the girl, he did one thing, and that was to quietly change her attitude and ideas about life - no longer just live an ordinary life in a small town, but want to go out and see, to give themselves greater freedom of spirit and mind. He left a lot of wealth to the girl with his inheritance, not to make her rich from now on, but to hope that she could not have to live for her family and boyfriend but a different way of living, independent, free, and self. He left her his original understanding and pursuit of life, his expectation of the meaning and quality of life.

　　Yu Hua's novel "Alive", a classic in the Chinese context, expresses a philosophy of life that one must live no matter what. In this film based on Jojo Moyes' novel "me before you", I see the opposite, as the hero finally chooses not to live, and before he does so, he changes the state of "living" of others. The "living" state.

　　Why would Will choose euthanasia? Zee, I thought about it for a long time. Why can't he live as strong as the heroine in "A Liter of Tears", a 15-year-old girl, suddenly suffering from incurable spinal cerebellar degeneration disease, but also in the support of family and friends determined to strive to spend every day without regret, choosing not to leave regrets to their youth? I imagined him as Stephen Hawking and also hope that he is Stephen Hawking, I also try to hope that he is a person like the Count in the castle, although there is a disease although crazy like wanting to die but also so strong to live, unfortunately, Will is not! Cheng Hao eventually turned into a bright spot in the night sky, but I am still under the influence of his article "Hell is behind me". I began to think again, I thought of the Oscar-winning "Late Night, Long Sleep", the best foreign language film. Maybe, when you are still alive and kicking, you can't understand the pain that the main character in the film never shows, and this pain can't be felt by people who haven't experienced it. Why does the hero persist for 26 years and still determined to die? Yes, for people who have completely lost the ability to take care of themselves, to face the embarrassment of eating, drinking, and shitting in life all the time, sometimes really suffocating! Of course, the plot of "Long Sleep in the Deep" is even more profound because the male protagonist chose to die even though euthanasia was not legalized after so many years of persistence, which is probably the result of careful consideration or should be supported. At this point, I retracted my thoughts and found the answer to all my confusion. At this moment, I seem to know why my grandfather preferred to die like that at this time a year ago or refused to go to the hospital ......

　　At the end of the movie, she is sitting outside a café in Paris that he once greatly appreciated, living his life - "could have been better"
