"If there was only one last day left in life, how would you spend it?"
Crazy drag racing, traveling abroad, passionate indulgence...
This is the answer of Benno and Andy in the movie "The Coolest Day".
It seems to be an ordinary story, but there are many highlights in it:
The plot reverses a lot
Comedic style
The temperature is touching
There are tears in people's laughter
……
These are all reasons I would recommend it.
What kind of story is this?
Benno, who has been idle all day, and Andy, the unknown pianist, two people with very different personalities who never seem to intersect, meet in the ward. Both suffered from incurable terminal illnesses and were running out of time.
At Benno's instigation, Andy decides to escape from the ward with him for a sunny and passionate trip to Africa. They want to enjoy a vigorous, carefree life, and then... Wait for death.
In this way, two "outlaws" embarked on their journey. Along the way, the two created countless troubles and jokes. They also recorded the bits and pieces of the journey on the "Sick Bed Boy" channel they jointly opened, and shared them with netizens around the world. And their poor health has also caused the two to repeatedly rub shoulders with the god of death. When they arrived at their destination, there was an unexpected sight...
What kind of people are Benno and Andy?
Benno
You will pass out if you can't move.
The Optimists have never done anything serious. Had a daughter with an ex-girlfriend.
Andy
Suffering from pulmonary fibrosis, oxygen is needed at any time, and is waiting for a suitable lung source.
With Mozart as his goal in life, he suffered from not being able to become famous and bring his father glory.
In addition, Andy is also very sorry for his life.
At the end of their lives, the pursuit of the coolest, coolest, and crazyst day is destined to do a lot of rampant things, repeatedly brushing past the god of death.
For example, before leaving, Benno went to find his ex-girlfriend and was "treated like a dog" by her mother.
Driving on the highway, Benno driving on... Fall asleep.
Andy meets a lion on the prairie, wide-eyed and small-eyed, unscathed.
And they felt the most regretful: they forgot to record this thrilling moment and put it on the Internet to share.
On the go, they have a warm side:
It's like Beno filming a video of his daughter making a little orange lamp;
Before the two go to bed, they always like to nag;
When meeting the "daughter", Benno looked tender;
However, the plot always likes to take a sudden turn.
They also have times of disagreement:
When they wanted to end their lives and start over, the two were still thinking about sharing their journey online.
In the end, Benno visits the infected Andy, warm and sad.
Beno said the misdiagnosis was the best thing that happened to him because he met his best friend, Andy.
The experience of being born into death has made them friends of life and death. In the face of life and death, what is misdiagnosis?
Finally, let's enjoy the Scenery of South Africa in the film! Many screens can be screenshotted as wallpapers.
What is the coolest day in life? Do what you want to do the most, then this day is the most refreshing and meaningful.
May you and I cherish life and live every day in the days to come.
