The Whale In 16 Minutes | This is Why Brendan Fraser Won An Oscar | Flick Summary | (RECAP)

[@bryansouders8367]

8:40 "Let's just say she isn't the friendliest person in the world." No, Charlie counts on his fingers and laughs because Ellie, although dark, wrote a haiku. Charlie becomes proud of his literary genius daughter.

Great synopsis recap. Love the film and Brandon Fraser with the entire cast performances was brilliant and heart-felt.

[@marcyonsgard544]

Brendan Fraiser is brilliant in this film. Definitely see it!❤

[@anrckindaguy]

So him taking advantage of Hus students, ditching his kids and wife, trying to pay his daughter for company, sounds like horrid movie

[@antonglas7488]

This is one of the best films I have watched for years. So glad Brendan Fraser won an Oscar for his amazing performance as Charlie.

If he had just fasted from the time he found he would die, he would never have died. He could have lost 20 lbs in a week and got his blood work looking good. If you have weight issues, remember you can fix it. Food is one of the worst drugs to abuse, but you can heal, even feel great not eating or skipping meals. Being healthy can be even more addicting and way better feeling. God bless, stay healthy both in body and spirit. And don't let a movie discourage you or make you feel hopeless, you have hope and you can do it!

Too much heart damage

[@fabianustertius6460]

There is a Point of No Return you can reduce the Damage but this does not turn the clock backwarts. What meaning does money have if you are dead ? Nothing being in debt for Life is still better than being Dead.

[@naesenh.2162]

It’s not the food it’s the addiction to the food. If porn had a toxic dose image how many people would have dropped dead by it. Addiction is the main thing that is nearly impossible to beat for some it’s food, others cigarettes, alcohol, porn etc. at some point it stops being about the substance and it’s the brain so hard wired to crave the routine and substance at specific times or under certain moments of distress that logic fails to override our addiction

Why does this summary purposely avoid identifying Liz as an enabler?

[@valeriaromainville2288]

I know it is hard to understand, but I think she already new he was gone anyway so it wouldn't make much difference giving him what he wanted because it was too late for him to make any changes.

[@littlechaq]

​​@@valeriaromainville2288 Alan starved himself before inevitably ending his life. Part of Liz's trauma lies in her inability to convince Alan to eat when he was spiraling into his demise. Similarly with Charlie, the same trauma causes him to binge eat because he witnessed the love of his life deteriorate. In a tragic way both Liz and Charlie are coping with the horrible way Alan suffered before his untimely death.

[@guilelie_gm9252]

I just finish seeing the movie, "The Whale" Wòw..what a movie and performance by Brandon. Oscar deserved. But as i read the comments..i see some holier-than-thou commets. They never learn. The fanatics. What people failed to see is the horrible pain western religion continues to inflict on gay men. I had the honor to mèet many gay men who Sadly committed suicide due to severe depression and outcasts they endure quietly in pain.. just because of whò they choose to care about. Gay people are one of the greatest human beings i have meet. Gay people love as deep if not sometimes more than heterosexual people. Many times at their own expense and own life. I took care of an elderly gay man. He ended giving half of his life savings trying to help troubled youth. With nothing in return other than just friendship and hope that the troubled youth could have a chance at living a normal life. The other half he gave to his financially poor nieces. I hope one day gay men are seen for their character, what they do for others, the kindness, and love they give to others. RIP My dear friend.

I can't say I found this to be one of my favorites. Maybe 5/10 ? Ellie is just pure evil. Liz is a little too self righteous. The Missionary is flawed, but at least has good intentions. Mary is "not so bad." But she could have stayed for the last few hours. I actually found "The Wrestler" to be MUCH, MUCH, MUCH better. 10/10

Great summary but i will not watch that. There is no single good message there.

[@eastgermanphotographer2868]

The Good message is that even while people may come off as bad or evil, you should always be optimistic, no matter what. Charlie tried to do that with his daughter, even while she continued doing wrong things. Even though this story is depressing, Charlie teaches us that we should continue to be optimistic even while we’re at our lowest or if someone is being horrible to another.
