Me before You versus The Fault In Our Stars
This review is
about two movies, Me Before You and The Fault In Our Stars, let´s compares!
Me Before You
The life of Louisa
Clark, a happy and crazy girl who is working 2 jobs to help her
family survive. Her life changes completely when she begins to work as a caregiver for a
young millionaire, who was paralyzed after an accident. Little by little, she
establishes an increasingly intimate connection between them.
Me Before You brings together two people who
couldn't have less in common in a poignantly romantic novel with one question:
What would you decide when making the person you love happy means also breaking
your heart?
It is one of the most emotional movies I have
seen for my taste, Louisa is a simple young woman, while William is a
millionaire who no longer wants to live being a burden to others. At the end of
the movie, William decides to travel to a country where euthanasia is allowed
and leave part of his fortune to Louise so that she can start a new life and
above all, that she would be happy.
The Fault In Our Stars
The
Fault In Our Stars is a story about love and death, narrated in a dramatic and
humorous way, in which cancer appears as the main character to warn about the
importance of valuing life and enjoying the present.
Hazel
is sixteen years old; she has been sick with cancer since she was little and
survives thanks to a small medical miracle and the oxygen cylinder that
accompanies her all the time. One day, Hazel meets Gus, who has already
overcome the disease.
Young
people hold different meetings in which they share their tastes and hobbies.
They also challenge each other to read their respective favorite books. Hazel
shares with Gus a work entitled "An Imperial Pain" by a writer named
Van Houten, for which the young woman feels a great admiration, Gus decides to
take her to meet the writer, but during the trip he confesses to Hazel that his cancer has returned and is in terminal phase.
Both movies are romantic, full of touching and
very sad scenes.
In my opinion, Me Before You is much more
emotional than The fault in our stars, because in the end the protagonist,
William, decides to give up on life, leaving with the satisfaction that his
beloved Louise has a better life.
If I could change the ending of any of these
movies, it would be Me Before You, I would choose William to stay with Louise
until the end, sparing his parents and Louise her pain.
