Description

Als der College-Professor Richard eine lebensverändernde Diagnose erhält, beschliesst er sein Leben umzukrempeln. Nur noch sechs Monate bleiben ihm übrig und die will er in vollen Zügen leben. Seine langweiligen Studenten würgt er sofort ab, denn warum noch kostbare Minuten mit schlechten Gedichten verschwenden? Stattdessen geht es in den Vorlesungen plötzlich darum, wo man das beste Marihuana herbekommt. Ohne sich weiter an die engen Fesseln der gesellschaftlichen Konventionen halten zu müssen, geht es dem sterbenden Hochschullehrer plötzlich so gut wie schon lange nicht mehr. Mit einem beissenden Sinn für Humor, einer rücksichtslosen Ader und einem Hauch von Wahnsinn stürzt er sich durch alle Laster - Trinken, Rauchen, Sex. Ausserdem äussert er sich ehrlicher und furchtloser allen gegenüber, die ihn ärgern. Seine ausgelassene Reise führt ihn dazu sich mit der Wahrheit zu arrangieren und während die Uhr immer weiter abläuft, die Menschen die er liebt ein letztes Mal zu umarmen.

Ein gut gemachter Drama / Komödien Film. Johnny Depp und auch die anderen Schauspieler haben gute Arbeit geleistet.

I really loved seeing Johnny Depp without makeup and in the role of a normal guy who is trying to come to terms with his mortality. He is I think how most of us would want to handle being given the worst kind of news- screw it all, let’s have a drink, let’s smoke some pot, let’s go do all of the things you’re not supposed to do, let’s go Live. He’s hilarious in a crass sort of way, honest, sensitive, sentimental towards his daughter and best friend, reflective, has some regrets, angry in moments feeling let down by God or the universe for his plight and just very real. You want to live vicariously through him. He teaches his students and the people around him to live life fully and seems to shake everyone up around him. I really enjoyed watching him and the good thing about The Professor is that there are no scenes of people huddled around a hospital bed, crying. I think it was really well acted, well written, everyone did a great job and I really loved seeing Johnny in a totally different role than what we have seen recently. The Professor is completely relatable and anyone who sees this will find something that reminds them of themselves, a friend, a family member, a life event having to do with Cancer. Even though it’s emotionally- charged, I thought that it was a positive and uplifting story and I had a lot of fun watching Professor Richard. It should be on the big screen!!!
