The Professor: 2017 Movie Review (A deep thoughts provoking Drama)
Hello Movie Lovers 🍿🎦🎬📽️❤️
I never thought a movie would change my perspective about life as this Movie:
What are you going to do with your life when you know that you got a few months to Live?
How are you going to React?
Such a thought provoking life situation is what the theme of this movie captures, complexity of human nature, family, Relationship and identity.
Although I am not a fan of Drama, but I find my self Glue to my Laptop screen from the Beginning of the Movie to the End of the Movie. I saw a movie recap on YouTube last week, I got connected to the concept of the movie, so I downloaded it after so many satisfactory reviews from people.
The professor is a Drama film that is directed by: Wayne Roberts, the film stars Johnny Depp as Professor Richard, Rosemarie DeWitt, Odessa Young, and Danny Huston.
Let's look at the Movies plot
The Film tells the story of Richard Brown (Johnny Depp), he is a middle-aged university professor who is abruptly diagnosed with a terminal illness (Cancer of the Lungs), He was told by the doctor that he only has a few months to live. As Richard comes to terms with his mortality, he begins to reevaluate his life and relationships. He starts to question the meaning of his existence and the impact he has had on those around him.
What I Like about the Movie
I like the Theme of the Film, which explores several thought-provoking themes, including instances of mortality, finding your identity, and the handling human condition, regardless of the complexity. I was left in deep though on some important questions about how we live our lives, how we treat others, and what truly matters in the end. Richard's diagnosis serves as a catalyst for his change in perspective and introspection of life, and the
I love the parts where He gave His Students the choice to either leave his Classes if they are genuinely not interested in the Subjects, he promised them to give them C grade regardless of their decision, or stay behind and enjoy the Unconventional methods of teaching he will use.
Few students remain true had some crazy adventures with their professor like going to the pub, taking lectures outside their classes, having true heartfelt conversations, and freedom.
He supported his Daughter that professed she is lesbian, He really had a true moments of happiness after letting go of all his Worries.
I also like the performance from the casts.
Johnny Depp delivers a genuine, down to earth and introspective performance as Richard Brown. His portrayal of a man struggling to come to terms with his own mortality is both heartbreaking and relatable. Depp brings a depth and complexity to the character, and his performance is a highlight of the film.
Also Rosemarie DeWitt shines as Richard's wife, Veronica, bringing a sense of warmth and compassion to the role. Her character's relationship with Richard is complex and multifaceted, and DeWitt navigates the nuances of their dynamic with ease.
I like the Way the film was directed, Wayne Roberts' direction is understated yet effective. He allows the performances to take center stage, and the film's pacing is well-balanced.
I also like The film's cinematography which reflects the somber tone of the story. The use of natural lighting and muted colors adds to the film's realistic atmosphere.
In Conclusion:
I enjoyed every time spent watching the movie,the strong performances from Johnny Depp and Rosemarie DeWitt, theme of the movie is very onpoint with Good thoughts provoking storyline, although sometimes the film's pacing may be slow but that didn't stop the movie from capturing the audience,
Overall, The Professor is a powerful and moving film that will resonate with audiences.
