The real-life love story of "The Big Sick"

[@Umm_Frank]

I cried as soon as I heard the father over FaceTime say how they almost instantaneously liked Emily. Sooooo sweet.

[@kristinb5073]

Sameee!!

[@defencebangladesh4068]

Yeah

[@karenlm9062]

I almost just cried reading how you cried that the parents instantly liked Emily. LOL

[@CharlieBrown20XD6]

Only criticism is I wish the movie showed the wedding. I wanted to see awkward Ray Romano interact with his mom lol

[@blackngold007]

I dream of the day when religion, race, creed, gender, sexuality no longer separates us and we can all appreciate each other for being a human being

[@baboom007]

That day will never come

[@strixgaming4271]

U will never have this day God created us different to test us how to treat each other's only in haven what U wish peace and love

I just love those two. They are so grounded and adorable. Amazing couple. I wish them all the best in the world.

[@ziljin]

wow this movie was based on real life? incredible.

[@RickMartinYouTube]

Thought Holly Hunter did another outstanding performance. Love the scene where Kumail said "We lost 19 of our best people" and Hunter's reaction. Had to rewind the DVR for that one a second time. RIP 9/11 victims, but that was the line of the movie, imo.

[@defencebangladesh4068]

LMAO 😂 👌 Yeah I liked that part

[@hemendraande9265]

@Draco lord well said

Incredible line and I agree Holly Hunter was fantastic

Sadly, he probably wasnt joking

@@tellurye, Shame on you. If that is how you were brought up, I pity your parent's role in your upbringing, extremely negative.

Watched this movie on an airplane (the only movie available on a 10-hour flight). Was happy that I got to know this love story. It made me cry several times.

[@leslieelaine5968]

[@zeidnasser154]

Didn't know about this movie before, it was on TV today so I started watching it ....couldn't stop, great story and really liked it. Now, a quick search on KZbin makes me discover it's Kumail & Emily's real life story. Lovely.

[@mrskamran]

Precious! With love and communication and patience families and cultures CAN come together! Adorable couple, fantastic movie! ❤️

[@jonesy2892]

The Big Sick was excellent. Once I learned it was based on a true story, I understood why it was so good. All the actors were great, especially Ray Romano who really stood out to me.

[@alexbasquez4386]

Love listening to their podcast Staying In with Emily & Kumail. They keep my spirits up!

I love a guy with his personality and well any race is fine, a cute guy is universal.

[@SirEmmanTV]

It's an amazing movie and the performances of Kumail and Zoe are mesmerizing.

[@alphadevilll]

Such an Awesome movie. I was shocked at the end because I didn't know that it was loosely based on a true story. But it also felt that much cool once I got out of it.

Loved the movie, the real life couple is even more wonderful than Kumail and Zoe (and that's hard to do because Kumail and Zoe were fantastic together). A wonderful movie, a wonderful reminder that differences exists but it doesn't have to rule our lives.

[@oskadavid2964]

the actors ho played his wife's mum and dad where outstanding

7:43 - Kumail Nanjiani clearly felt he didn't have enough good headshots, so he took a screenshot on 1/24/2018.

[@malikusman1323]

They look beautiful together. As a Pakistani Muslim, I would say that people around the world have the wrong image of Muslims. The thing is we all are like you people and there are bad and good people in every society whether it's Christian, Muslim, Hindu, and whatever religion or race they have.

[@theshadow9238]

Honestly though. I hate, hate, hate that so many republicans hate Muslims. Everyone is just a person.

Okay...Kumail reminds me of Danny Thomas. Especially when he wears that suit with the cuff links, and tells jokes. That nose, that smile, the black hair, his disposition, and his humor style. Danny Thomas is the father of Marlo Thomas, the main spokesperson for St. Jude Children's Hospital in Memphis, TN. Danny Thomas was the first real spokesperson for the hospital before he died.
