One of the most popular novels is coming to life on the big screen very soon. If you haven’t heard about it yet, I am happy to tell you that Jojo Moyes’ "Me Before You" will finally become a movie. Recently, the trailer for the movie was released and people are going crazy over it. If you haven’t read the book yet, I strongly advice you to pick one up today and see what the rave is all about.
What makes this movie different from all of the other love novels that usually come out is that this is not just about romance, but bringing joy and purpose into someone’s life. Louisa Clark, a young and quirky woman, takes the job of becoming a caregiver to the young and wealthy banker, Will Traynor. Traynor has been paralyzed from an accident that happened two years prior, and he had basically lost seeing all the joy in life. However, his cynical outlook starts to change when Louisa opens his eyes to see that life is worth living. This movie will make you laugh, it will make you cry, and make you appreciate all the things you have in life.
This is more than a love story, it is a life lesson for those who may know someone who is disabled, and what they go through. It can open people’s eyes to look past the looks and the materialistic things and learn to love someone for who they are.
It is also a lesson to allow yourself to let people into your life, because they may end up having a big impact on you. This is a must-read book, and a must-see movie.
