The Bucket List

Bitter billionaire hospital magnate Edward and working class mechanic Carter meet in the hospital due to cancer. They have to share the same room because Edward's hospital admits of no exception giving a private room for him. And then, they become friends and learn each other living. Carter has been married for forty five years with Virginia and has two sons; Edward has four divorces and a daughter who does not meet her father because she and her husband had to split up by him.

One day, Carter starts writing a bucket list and the next morning Edward finds it. While Carter was sleeping, he adds what he wants to do like skydiving. After Carter wakes up, they decide to do everything in their list before dying. Edward offers to finance the trip and they start doing those - embarking on race car driving, skydiving, climbing the Pyramids, going on a lion safari in Africa- in short, they begin an around the world vacation.

In Hong Kong, Carter's wife calls Edward and she said that she wants her husband to come back home. Carter declines because he wants Edward and his daughter to meet. After Edward regrets it, Carter decide to return home. Meanwhile, the cancer has spread to Carter's brain. He is taken a hospital and Edward is called for this. When Carter goes into surgery, he insists Edward finish the list without him. Unfortunately, he dies on the operating and his ashes are brought to the top of the Himalayas as he wants.

Edward goes on completing their bucket list. He sees his daughter and meets his granddaughter he never knew. Edward crosses 'kiss the most beautiful girld in the world' off the list because he kisses the little girl on the cheek.

Edward wants Matthew to bring his ashes near Carter's ashes on the Himalayas. After he died, Matthew ascends the mountain and puts his ashes besides Carter. Therefore, he crosses off the list item on the bucket list: witness something truly majestic!

Morgan Freeman and Jack Nicholson created a wonderful film. After you watches the film, your life will be more meaningful. In the end, I did not choke back my tears. I really recommend this fantastic production.
