This makes me feel something that I can't explain. I haven't watched the movie and the fact that only this scene is enough for me to feel weird (not in a bad way) is amazing
In 1998's "Gods and Monsters" Brendan Fraser played a gardener who develops a relationship with gay director James Whale (played by Ian McKellen) that changes his life. Here he plays a gay character who takes refuge from the pain of his life in the story of a fictional whale. Is there some sort of connection beyond random coincidence here?
If this scene was realistic it go like this. At 3:01 the daughter leaves. He continues to have an heart attack and passes out. The nurse or Asian woman runs in to see what happens. She calls the hospital and they take him to the hospital. At 3:06 the daughter visits him at the hospital and is told That he is in a coma and isn’t going to make it. She cries for him to wake up. Begging him. Then at 3:20 she reads the essay for him one like he wanted. Even though he is in a coma he can still hear her and passes happy to hear her. Then it ends.
As a man who has trouble with experiencing emotions it’s the revelation that it’s her essay that caught me off guard but it’s watching him say “people are amazing” for the second time is what brought a tear to my eye
Everything in this life is a result of the environment, wether you have been abused, accused, or loved. Nature still does not respect backwardness. What makes you think that the daughter needs all this talk or even needs her father after all these years? I was fatherless for many years. I was fine with that. I was also motherless. I was fine with that. Until they both wanted to connect with my life, and they did it against my own will, which led me to stress more, smoke cigarettes, feeling lazy and without hope. Now I am fighting for my life and survival and I put both of my false parents behind me. I am stronger now.
I imagine then when a morbidly obese person is dying from their weight issue, the place their mind goes to is a day in the past when they were still able bodied enough to enjoy a good day. Very powerful ending.
oh he dead 💀💀💀💀 This film shows a lot of psychological turmoil - and interpersonal drama - but what stands out to me is his faith in the virtue of his daughter, even when she is behaving cruelly toward him. She broke the plate outside the window because she hated the care her father showed a random bird instead of her, and she sent the young zealot away for the same reason. When they come to an understanding is when peace is made. She is Ahab, and her dedication to anger became comical (the punchline, "glad for my ___) , and she could forgive. This film is NOT cruel jest, but an ode to faith in the better nature of us all.
such a simple movie, no A-list cast. Just incredible and emotional acting turned a simple script into a masterpiece. Fraser's one liners made me cry out, crying is easy but the feeling when your throat is full and you gulp down trying to control your tears. This movie was just crafted beautifully. Thank you for this masterpiece.
Why is it that bad b-movies, movies so bad they turn into something awful, attract the most fervent audiences? It's like watching someone eat something rotten with gusto.
@@roshinvarghese6879it’s not a very good one either. the acting is great but the overall plot is contrived and watching a man gorge on food for 2 hours only for him to hear trumpets and see a light at the end of the tunnel makes no sense. aronofsky is someone who has mastered ending his films (requiem for a dream, the wrestler, black swan, etc.) but this film’s final act felt way too redeeming for such a slovenly character. not saying i wanted the ending to be ghastly, but all actions should have consequences so i think the ending was fitting of something far more down to earth whether that be good or bad. this just felt way too surreal for me to even consider justifying it.
@@Walt_Xander94 Because the box office is a measurement of wealth generated, and people can enjoy bad things. And because the academy awards aren't the majority opinion, it's a small set of Hollywood judging it's own. It's the acting equivalent of an author putting "#1 NYC best seller" on their reprint book cover.
