From resistance to compromise in work choices – everyone grinding for life can relate.

Описание: The Upside (2017) is a warm and healing comedy-drama film directed by Neil Burger, starring Bryan Cranston, Kevin Hart, and Nicole Kidman. Adapted from a true story, the film focuses on the unexpected bond between two people with vastly different identities and circumstances: Philip, a wealthy quadriplegic, lives a sophisticated but lonely life and is in urgent need of a full-time caregiver; Dell, who has just been released from prison, is under family pressure, muddling along all day, and only reluctantly applies for the caregiver position to receive relief funds. What seems like an impossible pairing sparks warm chemistry in their interactions—Dell’s casual and unrestrained nature breaks the dullness of Philip’s life, bringing him the warmth of ordinary people’s daily life; Philip’s trust and tolerance help Dell regain his dignity and sense of responsibility, gradually finding his life direction. With a humorous and relaxed tone, the film dissolves the barriers brought by class and physical differences, profoundly interpreting that "companionship is the best medicine for all pains". It not only portrays a sincere friendship across identities but also conveys the humanistic care that "everyone deserves to be seen and warmed". Relying on its delicate emotional expression and the wonderful performances of the actors, it has become a healing classic that resonates widely.
