At first, I am afraid that Max would betray Celia in the end because most of the movies I've watched is like that, but instead he surprised me with his kindness and became one of the people that helped Celia achieve his dream. I am really glad for Celia and I wished I can find a friend like Max
That reminds me of my childhood I couldn't see and my parents didn't care so I made my way around by feel and listened really attentively. I got glasses near the end of my teen years but I missed out on alot. Couldn't imagine having to be like that for my whole life
@@realglutenfree i get that, but funny how well timed she is, skipped right past the getting fried, drinking, and hospital, and went all the way to the i got my job back and passed my exam
@@b2kzangelalwayz Right! It a SUPER lucky they found her kid alive and safe. And how is it her fault and how was she supposed to know his dad was a douchebag and abandoned and took all their family’s money? And his family is penniless and struggling?? “Sorry I lied through our entire relationship and endangered your kid. I completely destroyed your trust. Can you give me money, though?”
At first I thought the voice was a text to speech voice because he said "resume" as in "let's resume the class" instead of "résumé". But then at the end he whispered to subscribe?! No way text to speech is THAT advanced! So now I'm realizing that he's just human, prone to mistakes as humans do... Or is he?
Youth is such a great thing...never see the limits and go straight forward toward your dream. 20 years ago, there was a blind student in my classroom in University (Canada)... software engineering. She got her diploma.
that women shook him off at his first sign of disability and his first failure while he stuck through everything she threw at him even while having a kid that girl is a walking red flag
Laura rightly should be upset with Saliya, he should've told her about his sight when it was suggested he should look after her son. But let's not assume we don't know she came back because the market for a single mother is pretty slim pickings lol. "Laura came back...because she was lonely".
Retinal detachment typically presents with a falling curain appearance rather than blurry vision - painless falling curtains and then darkness. But still, an interesting movie
You forgot the awesome scene in the restaurant (during the date) Celia just continued talking while beautiful girls walked by and everyone turned around. That's what made her so interested in him
so many moments like 2:16, where you can't even have eye to eye contact with people. There are times when I squint out of habit and people think I'm mad-dogging them.
I assume they wanted to have some type of very positive movie, but I would have preferred a movie on his real/full life. It was way more dramatic and at times very hard. Portraying just the happy end lets people believe that if one works hard enough everything is possible and there is no need to change people's mentality and the legislation or open/continue the discussion about same rights for people with disabilities (although, the laws exist, the employers just jump through hoops to avoid complying with them).
@@beatm6948 You are born after 2000, aren't you? The guy was born in the 60s, so he became blind in the 70s. At the time people with disabilities had little support/rights in most countries. They still have little support and rights in most countries nowadays if we are honest. Germany (he lived in the GDR at the time) is one of the countries where currently people like him have support (at least in theory), but that is unfortantely not the standard...
I’m literally blind like that in one eye and it’s so annoying but I still try to do my best at work and my supervisors always tell me how I work so hard ❤
Whoa the lead actor looks so much like Gael Garcia Bernal I still can't believe it isn't him! I loved the early wholesome twist that the irresponsible rich kid who's a rival candidate for the job ends up being his most loyal friend! No bad guys in this movie and it looks like a lot of fun anyway.
Whenever you are a person who perhaps, has a crush but is too shy to look at them. Just remove your glasses, or borrow some reading glasses. Problem solved! You will confidentially always face forward
Ok so let me get this straight, he had surgery for his failing eyesight and the operation was successful but he lost 95% of his eyesight?? How does that make sense?
Whenever it comes to eye operation, there's always a risk of completely destroying the patients' vision. Even with some basic operation to get rid of myopia using LASIK technique, the doctor has to warn the patients about certain risks associated with the operation, including blindness.
Perhaps it was a degenerative condition that had progressed that far before it was stopped. You might think that if so much vision was lost it wouldn’t be worth it to do the operation, but every bit of vision counts.
This high expectations nonsense in the hotel would be cool if the hotel was owned by the workers and not lazy people who make money off their hard work and high standards
This story may make you feel good and think it's wholesome but I bet those employees that have to adapt are having to work extra to compensate for their blind guy
From what I've seen it's more the other way around. Having to spend the extra work constantly to familiarise himself with the stuff around him without the ability to see on top of doing the same work to the same quality as everyone else is very time consuming. The people around him taking a few minutes or maybe an hour to help aren't working that much extra to help him, especially compared to how much extra work he's doing himself on top of helping his friend back here and there.
@@aliceinwonderland8314 He presents a saftey hazard to those around him, remembering the scene when he fell into the cake? Broke all those glasses? He's unfit to work, accept it. It's like asking a sociopath to be good at social work, it's just not a good idea for anyone involved.
Laura is toxic. Of course, she came back when he got the job... Skipping the depression, alcohol and injury... 5 year old kid at like 22 was a red flag, lol.

at least he is not became an horrible person like Dan stevens character

I'm shooked too
In real life its impossible to find a friend like that. In my case anyway. People will take advantage of people.
Damn that was a pretty great and wholesome story. Man you can only wish to have a friend as great and loyal as Max.
Ngl I feel bad for all the guy went through. It wasnt his choice to be partially blind yet he tried his very best to overcome his disability.
Bro its a movie 💀💀💀
@@lmg6831 i thought it was based on a true story 🤣
@@lwazisomtsewu356 l would say loosely based
How u over come blindness
@@Happiness1876 seeing
The kindness of the ppl around him has me bawling
This guy is a good example for determination
This happened to a friend of mine. The most humble and absolute nicest human being I've ate to this day.
You’ve eaten*
You ate him? How did he taste like?
Huh? Ate??
U eat nice humans?
📸🤨
What a great story. It’s refreshing to see true acts of kindness for once.
This movie made me cry in excitement and happiness.
Me too

@@diamondp2722 “my blind date with life” it’s a German film so that’s actually translated
That reminds me of my childhood I couldn't see and my parents didn't care so I made my way around by feel and listened really attentively.

Couldn't imagine having to be like that for my whole life
I’m so sorry you didn’t have the help you needed as a child 🤍
So sorry that you didn't get the help earlier. Hope you make lot of happy memories now.
This is based on true character named Saliya Kahawatte. Movie tittle’s “My blind date with life”. The actor name’s Kostja Ullmann
thank you so much
U the real mvp
it is based on his life, but not exactly his life
Thanks 🥰
Thank you
what a gorgeous actor
Laura is a kind of girl who will left you in your wrost situation with miserable behaviour and come back when you're settled down .
I'm sorry but I can understand her leaving at that point. He endangered her kid by not telling the truth
@@realglutenfree i get that, but funny how well timed she is, skipped right past the getting fried, drinking, and hospital, and went all the way to the i got my job back and passed my exam
You’re weird. This was a completely reasonable response to a situation. He didn’t disclose and hid it from her.
@@b2kzangelalwayz Right! It a SUPER lucky they found her kid alive and safe. And how is it her fault and how was she supposed to know his dad was a douchebag and abandoned and took all their family’s money? And his family is penniless and struggling??
“Sorry I lied through our entire relationship and endangered your kid. I completely destroyed your trust. Can you give me money, though?”
why would she stay with him in his worst situation she literally just met him
The dedication of this man is awesome
I love how he didn't shake the HR guys hand twice. Once after the interview was over and at the end when he passed certification.
Max and salenias helping each other is so sweet
The title “ this guy is COMPLETELY BLIND “. 3 seconds in “ he is almost blind like 95%”
You can tell it’s an automated voice when he pronounced “résumé” that way.
and invalid
Ai voices are becoming very unnoticeable.
i felt the emotions of the people who tried to handshake him
At first I thought the voice was a text to speech voice because he said "resume" as in "let's resume the class" instead of "résumé". But then at the end he whispered to subscribe?! No way text to speech is THAT advanced!
So now I'm realizing that he's just human, prone to mistakes as humans do... Or is he?
Also this movie seems right up my alley. Definitely gonna try to look for and watch it. Thanks man
It is text to speech but if the accents were left out on the letters than it won’t say résumé. So that’s the RUclipsrs fault 😭
Youth is such a great thing...never see the limits and go straight forward toward your dream. 20 years ago, there was a blind student in my classroom in University (Canada)... software engineering. She got her diploma.
you whispering at the end scared the shit outta me
that women shook him off at his first sign of disability and his first failure while he stuck through everything she threw at him even while having a kid that girl is a walking red flag
and why make the woman come back at the end, the man deserve better love than her!
women are supposed to have kids
I think it was probably the lying & putting her kid in danger...
Why is no one talking about the “beautiful” singing voice-
Laura rightly should be upset with Saliya, he should've told her about his sight when it was suggested he should look after her son.
But let's not assume we don't know she came back because the market for a single mother is pretty slim pickings lol.

As soon as someone found out he was blind, he would have been fired.
So dumb

Groovy man… you pick good movies .. you’ve got a voice for radio man.. ever look into that..
It’s computer generated.
Lol well it was a nice thought
doesn't even sound like radio voice
What is computer generated

I can’t remember the last time I cried and even for a movie for that matter
Great movie

I think they just got rid of the disease and tried to salvage what they could

It doesn't, like half of this movie. How do you wait a table blind? Cycle down a mountain? Next he'll be driving
Wow that story was fantastic!
