“My yesterdays are disappearing, my tomorrows are uncertain, so what do I live for? I live for each day. I live in the moment.”
電影 “Still Alice”, 《永遠的愛麗絲〉》, 喚醒世界對身邊患有Alzheimer's disease，腦退化症朋友，家人的關注。 也展示了人性最真實，最美麗的一面，面對不可預測的困境！
主角Alice, 患有遺傳的早發性腦退化症，剛剛過了五十歲生日。事業正處于高峰，卻發現自己有時不知自己身處何方，上課不記得自己下句要講什麽，有時不記得最簡單的單字，慢慢，連自己的名字，生日也忘記了，最後自己是誰也忘掉…
電影裏， Julianne Moore has done a wonderful job. 一方面ALICE 內心世界很痛苦，但外表仍表現溫柔，和諧和堅毅。眼睛凝視一點，似是看見了什麼，但是乎什麼也看不見，看是在想著什麼，但卻想不起來。腦海空空的，看似沒有情感，其實欲哭無淚。
Julianne帶著觀衆，和主角Alice一起，一點一點,細膩的去經曆，去體驗這個身體退化過程,感受她內心的掙紮、焦慮、不安、無奈，感受給家人帶來的沖擊，變化，感受她因爲病情的反複無常，所帶來的的性情變化，有時脆弱，有時堅強，而最令人感動的是Alice家人無條件的愛，支持， 還有Alice那種面對疾病，保持心境和諧，溫柔，堅毅的態度- Gracefulness, toughness and warmth, softness...
The movie inspires people to learn to accept aging and diseases, to love ourselves, and
family, old generation.
What I like it mostly is the family attitude, support and
love towards Mama's awful deterioration , their caring, understanding, graceful , toughness manner, and Alice's touching speech.
看完“Still Alice”, 我對這個電影的中英文名字有了較爲清晰的理解。名字背後的真正意義：
A beautiful, smart Alice! Whatever she becomes at last.
A beautiful, smart Alice! Whatever she becomes at last.
人生是充滿矛盾的，而矛盾促進成長：
電影中的“爸爸”好像不斷在提醒我們，在家人心中，媽媽 Alice 不等於她的疾病，Alice仍然是我們美麗的ＡＬＩＣＥ。同樣，當我們或別人有情緒，提醒自己，我們，別人，都不等於情緒，目的是要看事物的本質，要看情緒背後的動機，看的更深，更廣，而不被情緒、表面上混亂的局面所控制，失控。
只有平靜才出智慧；大愛，就可以由心而發，不將自己打入受害者的地獄。要成爲情緒的主人。
只有平靜才出智慧；大愛，就可以由心而發，不將自己打入受害者的地獄。要成爲情緒的主人。
電影和原著中一些感人的對話：
“You're so beautiful,"
said Alice. "I'm afraid of looking at you and not knowing who you are."
"I think that even if you don't know who I am someday, you'll still know that I love you."
"What if I see you, and I don't know that you're my daughter, and I don't know that you love me?"
"Then, I'll tell you that I do, and you'll believe me.”
― Lisa Genova, Still Alice
"I think that even if you don't know who I am someday, you'll still know that I love you."
"What if I see you, and I don't know that you're my daughter, and I don't know that you love me?"
"Then, I'll tell you that I do, and you'll believe me.”
― Lisa Genova, Still Alice
“... just because
[butterflies'] lives were short didn't mean they were tragic... See, they have
a beautiful life.”
― Lisa Genova, Still Alice
― Lisa Genova, Still Alice
電影的高潮是ALICE 的演講：
“My yesterdays are disappearing, and my tomorrows are uncertain, so what do I live for? I live for each day. I live in the moment. Some tomorrow soon, I'll forget that I stood before you and gave this speech. But just because I'll forget it some tomorrow doesn't mean that I didn't live every second of it today. I will forget today, but that doesn't mean that today didn't matter.”
“My yesterdays are disappearing, my tomorrows are uncertain, so what do I live for? I live for each day. I live in the moment.”
“My yesterdays are disappearing, and my tomorrows are uncertain, so what do I live for? I live for each day. I live in the moment. Some tomorrow soon, I'll forget that I stood before you and gave this speech. But just because I'll forget it some tomorrow doesn't mean that I didn't live every second of it today. I will forget today, but that doesn't mean that today didn't matter.”
“My yesterdays are disappearing, my tomorrows are uncertain, so what do I live for? I live for each day. I live in the moment.”
So, just live in the moment.
"Yesterday is a history
Tomorrow is a mystery
Today is a gift.That is why we call it a present."

生命短暫，也可以很美麗，就像是蝴蝶，不是悲哀。
問題出現了，不逃避，接受生命中的一切挑戰，接受生命中不可控制的事情， 總是要學會放下的，過去的光輝和幸福，仍然屬于自己，不因爲身體變化被抹殺；但抱著過去的光輝不放手，继而折磨今天的自己，影響今天的情绪和幸福。
“I used to know how the mind handled language, and I could communicate what I knew. I used to be someone who knew a lot. No one asks for my opinion or advice anymore. I miss that. I used to be curious and independent and confident. I miss being sure of things. There's no peace in being unsure of everything all the time. I miss doing everything easily. I miss being a part of what's happening. I miss feeling wanted. I miss my life and my family. I loved my life and family.”

不論昨天擁有什麽，今天失去了什麽，都可以是一種Ｉｍａｇｉｎａｔｉｏｎ。最重要是此刻 － 活在當下。
電影讓大眾對腦退化症有清晰的了解：
電影讓大眾對腦退化症有清晰的了解：
早期腦退化症, 從外表看，和正常人一樣，但它就像是白蟻侵食木屋，記憶，一片一片被吞噬，最後失去所有認知力，照顧自己的能力，令人傷感。
電影不僅喚醒我對這個病的理解，也提醒我们預防的重要性。早睡早起，給大腦足夠的休息，營養和心靈上的修養，平衡，放松和寄托。
"在全球，每4秒便有1個新確診的認知障礙症患者1。在香港，每10名70歲以上的長者，有1名患上認知障礙症，至於85歲以上的長者，每3名便有1名患上此症3。隨著人口持續老化，本港的認知障礙症患者的數量將不斷飆升。2009年全港有103,433名患者，將倍增至2039年的332,688名。認知障礙症已成爲是21世紀的健康危機。"
Alice 面對的是所有人最終都要面對的，即使沒有早發性腦退化病，身體機能衰退，腦袋不靈光是遲早的事，只是下降坡度沒Alice的快，最後如果我們老而不死，也會像老人院裡那些連自己身處何方也不自知的老人一樣。
愛麗絲告訴我們要活在當下，靈魂離開我們的身體飄到臭氧層會得到修補，最後把一生都忘掉，剩下的只有愛。

腦退化症的主要高危因素包括：
- 心血管疾病
- 不良生活習慣
- 抑鬱症
- 肥胖或過瘦
認知障礙症病徵
如何预防：
ＲＥＦＥＮＥＣＥ：
Julianne Moore added another gong
to her collection of prestigious awards last night have beat Felicity Jones,
Amy Adams, Reese Witherspoon and Rosamund Pike to the 'Best Actress in a
Leading Role' BAFTA.
The flame-haired starlet was
applauded for her heart-wrenching portrayal of a woman with early-onset
dementia in the film Still Alice.
The 54-year-old actress has
already won 17 awards for her performance and has also been nominated for an
Oscar.
Based on a book of the same
title, Still Alice tells the story of Alice Howland, a professor at Columbia
University who develops a rare form of familial Alzheimer’s disease at the age
of 50.
The film explores the
implications of the disease which, in Alice’s case, has a genetic cause and
carries the risk of being passed down to her children.
