Me Before You (2016)

 

Me Before You is a heartwarming yet bittersweet romantic drama based on Jojo Moyes’ bestselling novel. The story follows Louisa “Lou” Clark (Emilia Clarke), a quirky and cheerful young woman living in a small English town. After losing her job at a local café, she becomes a caregiver for Will Traynor (Sam Claflin), a wealthy and once-adventurous man left paralyzed from the neck down following a motorcycle accident.
Initially, Will is cold and aloof, bitter about the drastic change in his life. Despite his resistance, Lou’s unrelenting positivity begins to break through his hardened exterior. As the two spend more time together, a deep bond forms, and Lou learns of Will’s plans to end his life through assisted suicide in Switzerland, feeling he can no longer live fully in his current state.
Determined to show Will that life is still worth living, Lou embarks on a mission to give him experiences that might rekindle his zest for life. Their journey includes joyful moments, heartfelt confessions, and a growing love that neither of them expected.
