50/50 |
The
movie is cast by: Joseph Garden levitt as the lead actor, Seth Rogen as his best buddy, Anna Kendrick
as beautiful doctor, Bryce Dallas Howard as the girlfriend and lovely
mom Anjelica Houston.
Watching
the
movie took me down the feelings of sadness and happiness surrounding
it. It's a beautifully scripted movie. The theme line is: a young guy
having a cancer (neurofibroma, schwannoma) and how he copes with it.
Being landed up with the
cancer, Adam, the lead actor, goes through the various phases of what we
medically call the various stages of Grief. Those stages can be
summarized as "DABDA", a shortcut for Denial,
Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance.
Okay, I
know the shortcut for those phases is little lame. But it's the medico
way of learning and memorizing things, as there are infinite things to
memorize. Coming back to the movie, the
actors deals with such a tough subject in a mature way. The humor is
used at its best, and it is not cheap. Well yes sometimes it is in part of best
buddy's rough sexual anecdotes, but the whole point is in having used it so
cool-ly. It shows having loved ones around,
families, friends, girlfriend (if they are true one) is always comforting. Yah
even the dog is. There will be flux of different emotions which reaches its climax
when Adam has to go for life and death decision.
Overall it is a very beautiful, dramatic movie. Can be watched with family,
friends. It sings about friendship, relationship, hope in the midst of darkness
and of course Miracles a doctor can do for you.. Seriously in real world,
doctors are not just about making money . There are some of them who are
polluting the name and fame of the profession.
My overall recommendation
is : Watch this movie. It's touching,
beautiful movie. Best for one's who love movie genre: Drama, otherwise good for
every one. I loved it.
