CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Leonard (Robert De Niro) visits Paula (Penelope Ann Miller) one last time.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Based on a true story as related by neurologist Oliver Sacks, Awakenings stars Robin Williams as the Sacks counterpart, here named Dr. Malcolm Sayer. Something of a klutz and naif, Dr. Sayer takes a job at a Bronx psychiatric hospital in 1969. Here he's put in charge of several seemingly catatonic patients who, under Sayer's painstaking guidance, begin responding to certain stimulati. Apprised of the efficacy of a new drug called L-DOPA in treating degenerative-disease victims, Sayer is given permission to test the drug on one of his patients: Leonard Lowe (Robert De Niro), who has not communicated with anyone since lapsing into catatonia as a child. Gradually, Lowe comes out of his shell, encouraging Sayers to administer L-DOPA to the other patients under his care. Julie Kavner and John Heard also star.

Just as he said ''I won't see you anymore'' my whole heart broke in a million pieces. What a great movie.

De Niro. Nothing short of spectacular acting.

[@onewaylife4all]

Not sure he was acting here

[@guydude6470]

This movie is extremely underrated

[@toxicomanhaladit1999]

@Griever I think he said that because it has 0 oscars, and people don't speak very often of the De Niro's performance and of the movie in general.

[@california4biz]

Underrated means it didn’t applaud it enough.

[@aidanw4153]

I don’t think it’s underrated. Everyone who’s seen it applauds it, it’s just that it’s not a popular movie

[@briarrose29]

I agree, but I think it is too hard for many to watch. It’s incredibly heartbreaking. It’s one of my top 5 favorite movies.

[@leftyla]

It was nominated for Oscar Best Picture and Best Actor, and 5-star reviews from major critics.

[@waveali5620]

Not even going to lie. Started to cry like a little itch when the score kicked in.

[@Fontari]

No need to lie. Penelope Ann Miller's character (Paula) is so caring, so giving it brings me to absolute tears...I sob like a child.

[@ElliottAS]

I feel the same way

[@dominiqueviari5261]

Same here...

[@ben282828]

Yep. Same here

[@rr7firefly]

This scene really choked me up. In the scene that immediately follows (Leonard at the window looking down as Paula (Penelope Ann Miller) walks away on street level) -- I completely lost it. One of the best movies I ever saw. Credits to Steve Zaillian for a great screenplay and to Penny Marshall (RIP) for directing.

[@Tonybc99]

Noe Berengena man, this movie really Hit hard in the feels

[@emooly4935]

I get it it chokes me up everytime too. Robert De Niro became my favorite actor after watching this movie

[@vuls81]

His tremors actually cessated for a moment during this scene. Top five dramatic movies all time for me.

[@vuls81]

Yes, even through his tremors and twitches you can see he his visibly upset as he looks down towards her walking away.

[@Robbie230272]

Exactly my thoughts. That total feeling of being inside a bubble while the whole world goes on without you. Deniro and Williams brilliant and the supporting actors underrated.

[@jesseburleson432]

You can say all you want about the great performances of DeNiro's career. But I say Robert DeNiro has never shined more than in Awakenings. His acting in this film is of the highest order.

[@Fontari]

The irony here is I can't stand him as a person. that has no bearing however on the fact that his talent is overwhelming!

[@ismailakyol2455]

Midnight run!

[@gregorionunez2881]

[@princessmissy50]

This is THE most incredible scene... unforgettable. How Robert DeNiro played this part so well, I'll never know, but he was fantastic.

[@texasguy5377]

When he stops shaking when they're dancing I am out of there tears all over.

[@stuartperry1047]

Very touching, and beautifully acted. A boxing trainer once said that Muhammad Ali visited the gym one day. He had been suffering from the effects of Parkinson's Disease for many years, but when he started hitting the heavy bag, he stopped shaking. This lovely scene reminded me of that story.

[@deb-1558]

I love that she doesn't abandon him and she still goes to visit him and read to him in a later since in the film when he probably isn't aware of it 😊

[@kbaer3038]

He said her father knows that she reads the sports pages to him. She knows now he can hear her also.

[@dillonblevins3364]

Man, I definitely shed a tear or two... or a couple dozen. Shit hits hard. Amazing acting.

[@Ktonrider]

This is by far one of the saddest scenes in any movie I’ve ever seen in my 47 years. Superb acting by all

[@rickwagner3797]

I’ll agree this is a heartbreaking scene and makes me cry every time but The Elephant Man blows this movie away in the sad department. You may run out of tears because its waterfalls from start to finish

[@Fontari]

Penelope Ann was the perfect cast for that part. She was convincing, warm and beautiful! Yes, I cried..like a baby.

[@roscoefoofoo]

Think of the nurses, therapists, and doctors who work with chronic/terminal patients every day, so patiently and kindly. Despite/because of how heartbreaking all the suffering is. They deserve a lot of thanks.

[@emssu858]

This scene truly breaks your heart. But I love that she still visited him after he was catatonic again

[@dmmchugh3714]

My impression was that after becoming catatonic again, he would still be aware of her presence. He just would not be able to communicate with her. I believe that is why she continued to visit.

[@BeavisT-800]

@@dmmchugh3714 like he said that her grandfather knows... but if you look at his face after telling her that, it looks like he told her a noble lie

One day maybe i'll understand why De Niro didn't win the oscar for this performance...

[@vuls81]

The other patients watching with dread as all of the gains that they made from the drug were slowly erroding away was heart wrenching to watch. I actually remember looking up the musical score to this move as the first few keys to this score were an instant hit for me. As I said in another thread, this was one of my top ten, maybe top five movies all time (dramatic genre). Tack on that this based on a true story and I can't believe this movie did not win more awards.

[@OVianense]

The Awakening by far is one of the most deep heart felted movies I have ever watched even while writing this you just feel this sensation of sadness but also happiness as if you're on a Rollercoaster of emotions. One moment you're happy for the fight that he had, and how he was finally awakened with that beautiful smile he had, being able to move, checking out the bench he first carved his name, met the love of his life but the other just sadness about how he, himself, knew that it wasn't going to last forever and how he couldn't go for his walk.. the only walk he would've had by himself.. but knew that it was risky. There's honestly so much you can talk about the film, you just have to watch it yourself. I just love it how the girl still kept on visiting him and talking to him that's soul mates right there even I can somewhat relate to what happened in the movie which thank God I fully recovered from but its honestly personal a true fight indeed. You'll never find Doctors like him in this world anymore. One that cares for you, one that believes in you no matter what others say or if he's put down for it, one that has faith in you and if you do its rare. Not just that but I have to say Robert Di Niro and Robin Williams are both incredible actors, superb performances by far the greatest actors of all time especially how they both were so into the character, you can really tell they loved it and how dedicated they were almost as if it was them or how they, themselves, wanted to be like them. This is a true story about inspiration about not giving up no matter what and always fighting the fight that you hope & dream for in order to succeed - the fight of life. What hit me hard was when he wanted to walk to be honest, and how he managed to get the emotions of everyone by calling the Doctor in the middle of the night to tell him that we need to remind the people of this world to take granted of life, not the other way around. To live life, to appericate life as he does since he was locked up for the past 40 years in his own world while also fighting it. God bless Robin Williams... God bless.. Robert Di Niro and Leonard Low... especially the real life doctor where you can tell he truly cared about his patients and guess what? So did the patients themselves where they would even remind the Doctor to take care of himself. Another thing that made me deeply emotional is how he couldnt read anymore, and how he just wanted to take life granted. To exprience things on his own without there having to be someone there to monitor him so that he can feel the world that he always wanted to feel especially the girl he loved most... and the doctor he truly thanked. So many countless moments that you can talk about that hit your heart spot on. God bless all these patients, the doctors, Lennard and how nobody knew that even Robin Williams would suffer from a similar disease. It was also his favorite movie to act in since the human brain is just awe & extraordinary same thing with Robert Di Niro. You just have to watch the movie and apperciate what the doctor did to all these patients. Speechless right now, you ever have that feeling where you just can't describe it almost as if its a bundle of emotions of joy, sadness, happiness and etc? Because that's what I'm expressing right now. My favorite movie indeed & the best movie ever. Like my motto has been since I was kid live life to the fullest and always celebrate the day like its your last. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

Awakenings

[@2utanboo6]

bloody beatiful scene

[@LykMike]

Man! I think this is the best I've seen from Robert de Niro... I don't cry for movies or anything else for that matter but this scene got me!

[@scottptolomey3498]

Awakenings is one hell of a movie it’s absolutely gets you right in the Heart it makes you smile and ultimately it makes you cry. Trying to understand the value of life when you wake from a catatonic state and then to see it fade away in front of your eyes when you’ve not even begun to experience the everyday things we take for granted is the most heartbreaking of all. Robert De Niro is not just fantastic in this movie he’s outstanding and Robin Williams is massively endearing and probably one of their most amazing performances together on film. So heartbreaking and ironic that Williams was also in the first stages of Parkinson’s disease when he took his own life which makes Awakenings that bit more special 😢❤️

[@micbear9334]

Lewy body disease so more accurate to say Parkinsonism.

[@jordanforever21]

Such a great scene, sad, and Penelope Ann Miller was beautiful.

[@theminibagofdonuts1726]

First time ever crying at a movie

[@rickwagner3797]

Try The Elephant Man. You won’t make it 20 minutes without waterfalls and they won’t stop until the credits. By far the saddest movie I’ve ever seen.

[@adamfine7445]

One of my favourite scenes of all time in Motion Picture. This film had so many important, gentle and authentic messages portrayed beautifully

[@vegetaking3418]

No Oscar for Robert de Niro it is a same this movie is so underrated and not fair he Plays his role amaizing

[@quietside3734]

When he watches her leave through the window . . . What a truly appalling way to end your life. That could be me, or you, or the ones you love, trapped inside that body. We need to stop this, right now.

[@vuls81]

That's exactly why this movie hits home. Any of us could have been stricken with this condition

[@vuls81]

When he looks on at her walking away to the bus, visibly upset, the she walks to the bus looking back for the last time was an emotional bullet.

[@rogerramjet5302]

I bought the soundtrack years ago, this theme always breaks me. Beautiful.

[@kbaer3038]

Amen. The score is incredible.

[@ngonzale3]

Absolutely amazing! Takes my breath away every time I see it.

[@comba06]

People please watch the whole movie; this snippet cuts out the crucial last part of this scene where De Niro despite his severe tics walks with difficulty to a security window, and Penelope miller looks back wistfully last time then gets on bus; by then you will be on floor bawling..

[@shridharkk5159]

[@o.portista]

What a great movie, done by two legendary actors. This film was said to be Williams top favourite film he enjoyed being apart of, same thing for De Niro. The film literally touches your heart, and teaches you the value of life and how many people take it for granted. God bless Williams and Oliver Sacks. Two heros in a better place now. It's also amazing how Williams a few years later would battle a similar brain trauma/disease. Theres no words that can fully describe this movie. Astonishing. I could say the part that hit me the most was when Leonard had said he counden't read anymore, and how he told his lover that it was his final time seeing her, like holy there is so much that could be said about the film, just you can't describe it, you can only see the film for yourself. God bless Williams, Sacks and all those patients who had suffered, and battled. Legends. Such an under-rated film.

Because He was your friend, and because you are a good man, that scene is not on KZbin, 😞

De Niro’s performance was by far better than Dustin Hoffman in “Rain Man” two years prior. It takes a LOT to steal the spotlight from Robin Williams, even when he was acting reserved (eg Good Will Hunting, Fisher King). Nathan Lane in “The Birdcage” also achieved this.
