in Ukraine, right?
When he closed his eyes, his heart was opened...
A long time ago, Carter Chambers' philosophy professor suggested that
his students compose a "bucket list," a collection of all the things
they wanted to do, see and experience in life before they kicked the
bucket. But while Carter was trying to define his private dreams and
plans, reality intruded. Marriage, children, myriad responsibilities
and, ultimately, a 46-year job as an auto mechanic turned his concept
of a bucket list into little more than a bittersweet memory of lost
opportunities and a mental exercise he occasionally thought about to
pass the time.
Meanwhile, corporate billionaire Edward Cole never saw
a list without a bottom line. He was always too busy making money and
building an empire to think about what his deeper needs might be
beyond the next big acquisition or cup of gourmet coffee. Then life
delivered an urgent and unexpected wake-up call to both of them.
Carter and Edward found themselves sharing a hospital room with plenty
of time to think about what might happen next--and about how much of
that was in their hands.
For all their apparent differences, they
discovered they had two very important things in common: an unrealized
need to come to terms with who they were and the choices they'd made,
and a pressing desire to spend the time they had left doing everything
they ever wanted to do. So, against doctor's orders and all good
sense, these two virtual strangers check themselves out of the
hospital and hit the road together for the adventure of a lifetime--
from the Taj Mahal to the Serengeti, the finest restaurants to the
seediest tattoo parlors, the cockpit of vintage race cars to the open
door of a prop plane--with just a sheet of paper and their passion for
life to guide them. Adding and crossing items off their list while
taking in the grandeur and beauty of the world, they grapple with the
difficult questions and the even more difficult answers that plague
all of us. And, without even realizing it, become true friends.

Anyways, that's more drama than comedy. Enjoy! Ответить | С цитатой
