Me Before You (DVD)

My mom loved this movie. I always refused to watch it, until she passed away. Now it is on my top 5 list of movies. It may bring you to tears, but it’s sooooo good. Shows the kindness, compassion, and caring that people need and deserve. It will make you cry, so you might want to order Kleenex when you purchase this.

Wonderful movie.

Great movie. Wonderful story

The few disgruntled reviewers are not to be categorized as unfeeling...quite the opposite: what happened to them is what will happen to anyone who watches this movie intently and allows themselves to go with it, and become vulnerable to the emotions that it generates.Emilia Clarke is so overwhelmingly adorable and lovable, that it is almost like watching a Disney movie where you instantly fall in love with Ariel or Belle, the first time you see them....so much so, that we feel the pain that she felt and then have the desire to lash out, but since it is only a movie, the only way we could do that is to write a horrible review.But the truth of the matter is that we could NEVER know what a person like that could feel, as a paraplegic, and in addition to that, his "life", if you call it that, WAS filled with much pain and suffering, in spite of the magical times that he shared with Emilia....I fully understood the abject frustration that he felt, when, after falling in love with this person, he was not able to express himself physically to her, as so many of us who have had this kind of love, are privileged to do.....it is easy for us to judge him, and think that he is in-appreciative for what she offers him and feels for him, but again, as they say: " walk a mile in my shoes"......Naturally, I don't agree with his decision, but naturally, I don't have the life that he has, and I am not qualified to begin to compare what I would do in a situation that I would never want to be in !!As much as it is a love story, it is more so a coming of age movie for Emilia's character...as such , it should be enjoyed for what it is and nothing more.

This is the best movie! Sam Claflin and Emilia Clarke are excellent - a well done subject matter. Funny, happy, serious and sad. Thank you for making it available for purchase.

Loved the movie

The self-identified "disability advocates" who have been smugly trashing this movie need to take a big step back, sit down and actually watch it. There is not one word or image in the entire film which suggests that Will is "better off dead." There is no message whatsoever that a disabled person is an unendurable burden who should simply vaporize himself. Louisa and Will's parents and Nathan, who are most responsible for his care, love him and fiercely want him to stay. If the movie has a message, it is that each person has the right to make decisions about HIS OWN life. The character of Will is so well-developed that, although we may not agree with his decision at the end, we do understand it. The nay-sayers call Will selfish, a coward. Not one of them seems to recall that Will is often in terrible pain. Those who have had to go through this--and I have--don't ignore it as unimportant. He endures his new life. But he is never able to accept it. We might think to ourselves, "He SHOULD adapt, he SHOULD be happy." But that particular man, Will, can't resign himself to a new reality which he sees as diminished. So he decides to die. It's not the ending we wanted. But it's his life, and the choice is his.
