I AM BREATHING reminds us what it is to be alive - a tale of fun and laughs with a smattering of upset and devastation. Within a year, Neil Platt goes from being a healthy 30-something British bloke with a great sense of humor to becoming completely paralyzed from the neck down, thanks to the devastating illness he has inherited - known as ALS, MND, or Lou Gehrig's Disease. As his body gets weaker, his perspective on life changes. His humor remains, but new wisdom emerges: "It's amazing how adaptable we are when we have to be. It's what separates us and defines us as human beings." Knowing he only has a few months left to live, and while he still has the ability to speak, Neil puts together a letter and memory box for his baby son Oscar and communicates his experience and thoughts about life in a blog - and in this film which he was determined to make. The directness of his communication mingles with images of the sensory details of a life well lived, and makes us revalue the ordinary. His blog posts form the film's narration as he tells his own story through memories and impressions of his life - the sheer joy of falling in love, of partying with his mates, of fast motorbike rides. Through his determination to share his final journey, he makes us ask questions about our own lives.
Oscar，你要好好长大，你有一个伟大的爸爸！
第一次见到纪录片用到plant and payoff － 故事结束后陈列出box of memories里的遗物真是有力的结尾；男主角的家庭录影带拍得好棒啊片子摄影相形见绌
一个处于青壮年的人逐渐丧失肌肉行动力，靠呼吸机维持生命，直到不能吞咽，在09年口述最后一篇blog，然后死去，目睹这一过程对他本人、对其他人类都很残酷。生命，健康，爱情，幸运，不可控，所以珍贵。一件东西在你无法控制地逐渐失去时会变的更珍贵。大概可以解释为什么到场观众有一半都是白发。
